Since 1989, The United Methodist Church has observed
the 3rd Sunday of Easter as Native
American Awareness Sunday, intended to recognize the gifts and
contributions of Native Americans to American society and the Christian Church.
Native American Awareness Sunday also provides a prayerful opportunity for repentance and reconciliation between indigenous and immigrant peoples.
Pray for non-Native partners and supporters, recognizing that
we are all one body, all brothers and sisters in our
Lord Jesus
Christ. (1 Cor. 12;12-27, Eph 4:4-6, Gal 3:28)
Pray for
God's forgiveness--and especially for the desire to forgive
others who "have trespassed against us". (Matt 6:12-15, Luke 11:3)
Pray for
the Navajo Nation--and for all Native people, tribes and
nations in North America (Psalm 67:4). Pray for its leaders, for
its
women and children. Pray for good relations between native
peoples. Pray for economic and social well-being.
Pray for
other Native American ministries on the Navajo Nation
and for other Native American ministries in the United Methodist
Church throughout the country. (Mark 12:28-34)
Native American Awareness Sunday also provides partners with an opportunity to make a financial donation towards our ministry and other Native American ministries in the United Methodist Church.
