Dancing Our Prayers and United Methodist Churches in Southeast Portland are hosting a drumming and dancing service for the whole community, led by native young people from the Yakama Nation. This grace-filled, guilt-free, and relationship-centered service is a chance to learn and hear the stories and wisdom our native siblings have. Dancing Our Prayers focuses on conciliation, justice, and healing between the Christian Communities and Native America.

This is a free and family-friendly event.

Time: Saturday, November 22 from 5-6:30pm
Location: Tabor Heights UMC: 6161 SE Stark St, Portland, OR 97215

Accessibility notes: Dancing Our Prayers leads music using a drum that can be particularly loud for persons with audio processing needs. A limited number of noise canceling headphones will be available upon request. Tabor Heights UMC is located 2 blocks East of the 71 Bus stop at 60th And Stark.

Dancing Our Prayers is a team of Native American students from the Yakama Nation who travel locally, regionally, and nationally sharing spirituality and faith through cultural revitalization and retention. Students drum and dance in full regalia and share their story and wisdom with the community. Dancing Our Prayers is a part of Mending Wings, a native lead faith-based non-profit organization.

We hope churches and community members in Southeast Portland will come together for this unique opportunity to learn about local Native American culture and justice issues.
