Rise Up!
Sharing the Future of Indigenous Ministry Through Cross-Cultural Partnership
The Spirit of the Living God is
calling for His Native people to rise up and take their place in His body.
We are made in His Image, poised and magnificent Nations, set in the stage
of natural beauty, walking out our relationships, with each other and with
Creator, in ceremonies and traditions, dressed in full regalia, believing in
the sacredness of life of the One who gives life. This is who we are.
Our voices have been silenced too long. We have remained in the
back-drop of not only society but ministry and missions as well. No
longer will we remain invisible and silenced. We are here. See us!
Hear our collective voice! Anita L. Keith (Mohawk/Algonquin), the author, is the Administrator for the North American Institute for Indigenous Studies and the Vice Chair of the Canadian Bible Society. An ordained minister, she works closely with ministries such as Youth With a Mission (YWAM), Youth Mission International (YMI) in a training capacity, teaching on cultural issues such as social, traditional and Christian.
