As a Native American Church  we do not encourage or support drinking, and/or Drug use. We understand that as human beings we all have character defects. We encourage our brothers and sisters to reach out for help and not sit in silence anymore. We are here to heal and help one another! Please let someone know if you or someone you know is struggling. We have many outreach resources in the area.
