100 attend Native American dinner

by Nancy D. Borst

RICHMOND, June 30  - Native American Presbyterians played host to about 100
guests Tuesday evening at the Assembly dinner of the Native American
Consulting Committee (NACC) in the Richmond Convention Center.

 It was a casual, hospitable event, warm and intimate despite the large room.
Participants introduced themselves, many commenting that they attend the
annual event because of the warm atmosphere.

Members and officers of the NACC presented small gifts to those in
attendance, along with prayer scrolls made by Native American Presbyterians
across the United States. The event included an update on Native American
congregations in the Presbyterian Church (USA), and a message from Vernon
Carroll, chair of the General Assembly Council, a member of the Blackfeet
tribe.
