Columbus Day is an anachronistic and harmful holiday that distances Americans from the reality of our national heritage. In contrast, Indigenous Peoples Day is an opportunity for spiritual deepening for people of all backgrounds. This Sunday, we allow ourselves to become fully present, aware that this time and place are sacred, regardless of how we came to be here. We value indigenous wisdom not out of nostalgia for the past but because it makes us more alive, more connected, and more accountable to the future.

Heritage altar: Land you love

Bring an object or symbol from land you love: your home, the Fellowship, your birthplace, or some other sacred place. It could be a stone, a shell, a handicraft, a photograph or drawing of a place, or some other symbol. You may leave your objects on the Altar through November 5th, or take them home after the service.

Join us in-person on Zeandale Rd or on Zoom.

Here are the videos from Dr. Lyla June used during the service:
