Scope and content | This file contains a presentation by Julius Merkuratsuk expressing hope that perhaps one day his Church may have a minister who is from Nain and who is bilingual (English and Inuktitut). He also states that the wisdom and knowledge of elders in his Church and community must be passed on to the Inuit so Inuit culture and language does not become extinct. He introduces Julius Saimat, the next speaker. | |
