Bulletin inserts provide update on Native American ministries

[Episcopal News Service] Native Americans and Alaskan natives have
centuries of rich tradition and cultural knowledge passed down from
generation to generation. They have survived a traumatic history, in
which the Episcopal Church was directly involved - including removal 
of
children from their families to church and government-run boarding
schools. In the past year, the Episcopal Church has worked to
acknowledge that history as it invites Native Americans and Alaskan
natives to shape the creation of models of healing and action for
indigenous ministries. ENS Weekly bulletin inserts for Nov. 21 honor
Native American and Alaskan Native Month and provide an update on the
Episcopal Church's ministries to native peoples.
