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 Unc'I
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.

we shall live),
