This page is dedicated to my native heritage which is rich with culture and traditions. I was raised to believed that the native way was a savage way, but I am here to tell you that it is not true! For many years I shuned my native blood brothers and sisters because I thought it was what the Lord wanted of me. I was told that the native culture was a cult filled with paganism, and voo doo and that the Lord wanted nothing to do with this group of people, and that when we come to God, we must turn away from our culture because it is NOT of God! Shame on those who preach that lie, and shame on those for not trusting in the Lord's wisdom, including myself. These links are for the purposes of introducing the "First Nations" or "Host people" and their ministries unto the Great Spirit/The Creator. There are Native and Indigenous people all over the world who Know and Love Christ and the "Church" must come together as many nations of people with one voice. I earge you to take the time through these sites as I pray that they put a light on "Who these First Nations people are" How are you to imbrace them? " With Love." There has been a gap between the First Nation and Ingigenous people and the Non-Natives because of the huge misconceptions of the cultures. This is from the enemy, not from God! If we can all be separated by our cultures then the enemy has won and has done his job well. We need to come together and accept what God has made... A beautiful world full of differences. Being one does not mean stripping away the very thing that makes us all unique. It means being like-minded, having the mind of Christ...
