Season Two of the Sunday Verse is a companion piece to the new William Prince offering, “Gospel First Nation,” a 21st century Northern Interlake geographical sound imprint that tells stories of family and faith in the age of grief.
This album has been a hundred years in the making. On the cover is the Prince Memorial Chapel, a one-room, wood-sided building which has stood in Peguis First Nation in Manitoba, Canada since 1929. The chapel, no longer in use, holds in its name a story of family, identity and history that began a century before the chapel was built, and will continue long after it falls apart. Over ten episodes, William Prince tells us this story through the music of his childhood, songs of faith, struggle and grace.

“The God in the good time is the God in the bad time.” When confronted by hardship, we want to be able to turn to something to help get us through. Death and departures are at the centre of this week's episode, both in William's recollection of his childhood playing music with his father at wakes and his mother’s experience with the Sixties Scoop and the subsequent loss of culture, identity and family. Hear William’s answer to the enduring question, in song, “Does Jesus Care?”
