Make your voice heard!
Dear Friends,
I know you want to help heal the crisis in the Gulf any way you can. On June 26, 2010, Hands Across the Sand is encouraging everyone to take 15 minutes at a locally designated area to join hands in recognition of the Gulf Oil Spill. This is an international event and promotes ending offshore drilling.

Send Healing Thoughts to the Gulf
**********************************
FROM CHIEF ARVOL LOOKING HORSE, A Native American Elder
My Relatives,
Time has come to speak to the hearts of our Nations and their Leaders. I ask you this from the bottom of my heart, to come together from the Spirit of your Nations in Prayer.
We, from the heart of Turtle Island, have a great message for the World; we are guided to speak from all the White Animals showing their sacred color, which have been signs for us to pray for the sacred life of all things. As I am sending this message to you, many Animal Nations are being threatened, those that swim, those that crawl, those that fly, and the plant Nations, eventually all will be affected from the oil disaster in the Gulf.
The dangers we are faced with at this time are not of spirit. The catastrophe that has happened with the oil spill which looks like the bleeding of Grandmother Earth, is made by human mistakes, mistakes that we cannot afford to continue to make.
I ask, as Spiritual Leaders, that we join together, united in prayer with the whole of our Global Communities. My concern is these serious issues will continue to worsen, as a domino effect that our Ancestors have warned us of in their Prophecies.
I know in my heart that there are millions of people that feel our united prayers for the sake of our Grandmother Earth are long overdue. I believe we as Spiritual people must gather ourselves and focus our thoughts and prayers to allow the healing of the many wounds that have been infilicted on the Earth.
As we Honor the Cycle of Life, let us call for Prayer circles globally to assist in healing Grandmother Earth (our Unc'I Maka). We ask for prayers that the oil spill, this bleeding, will stop. That the winds stay calm to assist in the work. Pray for the people to be guided in repairing this mistake, and that we may also seek to live in harmony, as we make the choice to change the destructive path we are on.
As we pray, we will fully understand that we are all connected. And that what we crate can have lasting effect on all life.
So let us unite spiritually, All Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer. Along with this immediate effort, I also ask to please remember June 21st, World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites day. Whether it is a natural site, a temple, a church, a synagogue or just your own sacred space, let us make a prayer for all life, for good decision making by our Nations, for our children's future and well-being, and the generations to come.
Onipikte (that we shall live),

Water Blessing Ceremony
Prayer and Message from Dave Courchene
(Nii Gaani Aki Inini – Leading Earth Man)
Anishnabe Nation, Eagle Clan
Manitoba, Canada
I propose we do a Water ceremony – that each of us get a bottle of clean Water, hold it close to our hearts and offer a prayer. Through the Water, send a message of gratitude to the Earth, and to all Water of the Earth that has been affected and contaminated. Send your love to the Water and to Mother Earth.
This strong love of Spirit that you will put into the Water will give strength to Mother Earth.
Go to your nearest body of Water – a creek, a stream, a river, a waterfall, lake or ocean, and pour your Water that you have blessed with your prayer of gratitude. It will be your spirit of love to the Earth that offers our best chance of survival.
To the Water, you might say,
“Great Spirit, thank you for your unconditional love, and all the blessings of life.
Thank you for Vision, that allows us to see.
Thank you for the Spirit of the Ancestors, who guide us and teach us in our lives.
Thank you Mother Earth for all the blessings you give us that we can survive – the food, the water, the medicines, and all the teachings you give us to live a sacred balanced life.
Thank you to the Grandfathers of the four directions who have always been there to help us find a good life and balanced life, and who help us to treat all life with sacredness.

(A note from Val: Churches and houses of worship all over the country are participating in a similar ceremony. This can be done in groups or simply with a glass of water in your house, alone. It is a very powerful ceremony and I encourage you to take five minutes and direct your energy to expressing gratitude and healing to all water.) |
