A Great Urgency: To All World Religious and Spiritual Leaders
My Relatives,
Time has come to
speak to the hearts of our Nations and their Leaders. I ask you this from the bottom of my heart, to come together from
the Spirit of your Nations in prayer.
We, from the heart of Turtle Island, have a great message for the World;
we are guided to speak from all the White Animals showing their sacred color, which have been signs for us to pray for the
sacred life of all things. As I am sending this message to you, many Animal Nations are being threatened, those that
swim, those that crawl, those that fly, and the plant Nations, eventually all will be affect from the oil disaster in the
Gulf.
The dangers we are faced with at this time are not of spirit. The catastrophe that has happened with the
oil spill which looks like the bleeding of Grandmother Earth, is made by human mistakes, mistakes that we cannot afford to
continue to make.
I asked, as Spiritual Leaders, that we join together, united in prayer with the whole of our
Global Communities. My concern is these serious issues will continue to worsen, as a domino effect that our Ancestors have
warned us of in their Prophecies.
I know in my heart there are millions of people that feel our united prayers
for the sake of our Grandmother Earth are long overdue. I believe we as Spiritual people must gather ourselves and focus
our thoughts and prayers to allow the healing of the many wounds that have been inflicted on the Earth.
As we honor the Cycle of Life, let us call for Prayer
circles globally to assist in healing Grandmother Earth (our Unc¹I Maka).
We ask for prayers that the oil
spill, this bleeding, will stop. That the winds stay calm to assist in the work. Pray for the people to be guided in repairing
this mistake, and that we may also seek to live in harmony, as we make the choice to change the destructive path we are on.
As we pray, we will fully understand that we are all connected. And that what we create can have lasting effects
on all life.
So let us unite spiritually, All Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer. Along with this immediate
effort, I also ask to please remember June 21st, World Peace and Prayer Day/Honoring Sacred Sites day. Whether it is a natural
site, a temple, a church, a synagogue or just your own sacred space, let us make a prayer for all life, for good decision
making by our Nations, for our children's future and well-being, and the generations to come.
