Just a tiny note.

Regarding "the nations" -- one of the websites in this "Interspirit" network is "HealingOfTheNations.org"

http://healingofthenations.org

Also -- it so happens that I spent the summer of 1970 on the Pine Ridge reservation -- my girl friend was part Souix, we stayed with her relatives and slept in my VW bus...

And right this minute, it just so happens that I have on the CD a really beautiful recording called "Brule - We the People, A Tribal Gathering of Music" (the Brule Souix). If you want to hear something beautiful, and really excellent, get a hold of this. Natural Visions, PO Box 8606 Albuquerque NM 87198

My name is Chrissy. I am from Youngstown, OH. I have recently started a sister group called Hearts of Fire. We are women raising awareness of the Lakota Sioux's plight for survival. We will be raising funds in the future to help with the much needed firewood and propane situation in the Dakotas. The Bush administration is pulling monies away from tribes all accross America. They just took away $300 million dollors in grants for hud, for the Native Americans. Housing, water, sewage, medical, schooling is deplorable in the Dakotas. There are many reservations in the Americas that are self substaining, and are not as poor. Places in the Dakotas are third world conditions. Our governement has taken these peoples lands, freedoms and liberties away, and is now taking what little they have promised to them in 1889. A once proud and nobel people is at the verge of cultural genocide. Our governement wants the black hills, for the monatary value in minerals. This is HOLY land. They will stop at nothing to distroy this culture and their Holy lands. Our efforts is to raise awareness worldwide eventually of the Native American plight to hold onto their HOLY lands, and to not have to burn their furniture and clothes during winter months to keep their children warm. Most of the women working on this project are in recovery and are very Spirit filled women. My plan two years ago was to organize churches to hold motorcycle and car events. God had a different plan. He's organizing women who have struggled with alcohol and drug addictions. The reservations in the Dakotas have over a 90% rate of drug addiction and alcoholism. A few of our organizers work in recovery facilities, as administrators. A few work in the prison systems. These women have a HEART for this work. We need lots of prayer. I can feel the enemy biting at my heels as I write. Please pray for our group. The Maker is sending us to a lost nation.

PEACE, Ride with the Wind of the Spirit in Truth and Love...Chrissy
