A smudge and prayers from many faiths will be offered Satuday afternoon as a sacred site is dedicated on a small piece of land near Craik.
Multi-Faith Saskatchewan partnered with the Craik Sustainable Living Project to develop the Designated Sacred Space Project near the Craik Eco-Centre, which overlooks the Arm River Valley.
The project’s objective is to promote unity in diversity, said Krishan Kapila, president of the multi-faith organization.
