Truth & Reconciliation Sept 30

9/28/2022

This week is a time to reflect and create awareness on the history of Turtle Island. Sept 30th is a National holiday called Truth & Reconciliation Day. It is also a day we call "Orange Shirt day". For more info about this, look up www.orangeshirtday.org.
This week, in Peace River, Alberta, there are a number of events happening that I hope you can join us at. See attached posters. I feel so grateful to live in a community that supports these activities and actively participates. These events are for everyone, so bring a friend and share these posters with others.
I hope to see you there! Ay Hiy.

Hi my peeps!

I was checking out the Northern Lakes College website and found this great tool on their website.

I encourage you to check out the link and give the quiz a try.
See how many plants you can identify and learn the Cree words for them.

Thanks!

Winter Solstice

12/21/2021

Today is the shortest day of the year and the longest night, after today, the days will start to become longer and signify the return of the sun.

The teachings I have received has been to honor this day, to host a feast and a fire. To feed the ancestors and to pray in ceremony. WInter becomes a time of rest and introspection.

Take time to pray for others who may be hurt and struggling, too show empathy, compassion and kindness to others.

I wish you Happy Solstice, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I will be posting regularly in the new year...welcome 2022.
