Though we don't necessarily celebrate Thanksgiving with "Pilgrims and Indians" scenarios, we do pause to give thanks during this harvest season. God's grace has been shown in so many ways to us this year, including the generosity of donors who helpfund projects such as our recent roofing jobs and firewood harvesting. We give thanks for the resilience and innovation of our neighbors who value their traditions. We thankfully encourage artists who creatively innovate in traditional art forms, such as pottery, and we host visitors who come to serve, share and learn.
If you or anyone you know is interested in a short or extended visit to our part of Dinétah, you are welcome to join in our daily work, prayer and fellowship in our community. We recently hosted visitors from San Jose, California, El Rito, NM and Albuquerque NM who traveled many reservation miles, partnered on our roofing project, picked pinons, did IT work, and helped harvest firewood. Homeowner Carmen and her son Isaiah prepared a Navajo taco dinner (fry bread lesson included!) with blue corn mush and Navajo tea for all the visitors. Carmen also gave us a pottery demonstration. You are always welcome! Contact Jennifer for details on how to arrange a visit.
