"Herman D.W. Friesen was a spiritual leader of Old Colony Mennonites who helped modernize his community in opposition to traditional religious beliefs . Instead of migrating out of Saskatchewan as many did when the government insisted on public education for children he stayed and helped shape a new way of life for Mennonites on the prairies." -Back Cover.

The mission of the Mennonite Heritage Museum is to preserve and exhibit the stories of the Mennonites from their origins in the 16th century to their settlement in the Fraser Valley.
