Indigenous Sacred Circle Experience

The Sacred Circle (aka. Medicine Wheel) has been used by generations of various First Nations people for health and healing and as a tool for teaching and spirituality.

This is an opportunity to learn in a participatory experience:

• To become acquainted with the common characteristics of the Sacred Circle embraced by most native nations.
• That each nation embraces unique dimensions as they approach the Sacred Circle related to the context and culture of their native nation.
• To engage the Tiano understanding of the Sacred Circle.
• To understand how the Sacred Circle relates to us gathered today
• How non-natives may engage with the Sacred Circle

Behike Dayvanna Caraballo of the Taino Caney Indigenous Spiritual Circle will guide us.

Learn about Council of Three Rivers American Indian Center

Following the Sacred Circle teaching and experience there will be a potluck dinner. Vegetable soup will be provided.

You are encouraged to bring shareable dishes based on the Indigenous Nations “Three Sisters”-- beans, squash, corn

Hosted by the Committee on Native American Ministries of the W.Pa. United Methodist Conference.
