Hide Profile

St. Ignatius Mission was first established in 1845 on the Pend d'Oreille River, near present Cusick, in Northeast Washington State. Because this site was both isolated and vulnerable to flooding, the mission was moved in 1854 to its current location on the Flathead Indian Reservation. Father Adrian Hoecken, S.J., is the predominate figure in this early period of the mission's history.
