- A Little History ...
-
-
- It's sad, but 95% of Native American and
First Nations Peoples worldwide have refused to have anything to do with
Christianity.
-
- Evangelistic methods used by the church
for over 500+ years have not worked in introducing the Gospel of God's
unconditional love, grace and forgiveness. They have, instead, left
deep spiritual and emotional scars that have never closed and healed.
-
- Many Native Americans were told they must
lay down their cultural heritage and identity in order to join the family
of Christ; that everyone in the body of Christ must look and act
alike.
-
- Cynthia and I are of Native American
descent. We have surrendered our lives to Jesus Christ and have been
ministering to the Sacramento Native American community for five
years. Our singing and drumming give us opportunities to serve and
minister at funerals and memorials. We have been honored to work
side by side with leaders and elders at many community events.
-
- Reaching First Nations People is
difficult. I have personally experienced rejection and verbal abuse
from some Native brothers. But, if out of every 100 that reject the
loving message of God, one will say, "I need God in my life.
Will you pray with me?" Then it is all worth it ...
