Donald Suluk

Donald Suluk

Donald Suluk (alternately Sulutnar, b. approximately 1925, Chesterfield Inlet, Nunavut-?[1][2]) was an Inuit religious figure who preached a syncretic form of Christianity in Nunavut in the 1940s.

Suluk promoted practices such as the use of crucifixes, but also heterodox practices such as using his dog to make people confess.
