A Gathering Place, A Spiritual Home, and Healing Center for All People.
In the Wareham Area of Cape Cod.
Peaceful Gathering Place is meeting temporarily at The YMCA in Wareham at 33 Charge Pond Rd. the number there is 508-295-9622. We will be meeting there the 3rd and 4th Saturdays of each month 2:30pm-4:00pm. (Due to illness not meeting on February 20 meeting scheduled for February 27)
Each Gathering Opens with a Prayer for everyone Gathered, and A Thanksgiving to Creator for giving us the ability to speak to One Another This Way.
The work that Peaceful Gathering Place will do, will be done by all of us, It will be something new in Indian Country, a gathering place in the old sense, a place like our Ancestors had, a place all our own. Any words spoken will be heard by all, addressed by all, and with all the Family Members Gathered , the problem will be given in a loving way to the Circle and spoken of until a solution is reached that Everyone can live with. The most important work for our Tribal Family is to become Family to one another again, the way our Elders were.
We will discuss everything here, no topic is off limits. We will help one another in good times and bad, everyone will know they have a place in this Longhouse, this is the Native Way.
Topics: What is the goal of Peaceful Gathering Place, How can we make a difference in our Tribal Society, How can those changes benefit our families. Think this over and bring it back to our Circle.
We will teach each other, we will work on Ceremonies, I will bring what I know to the Circle, and share it with everyone, our People have gotten to far away from what makes us Tribal, so now is the time to bring this back, we have gotten to far from our Traditional Diet, and now is the time to bring that back. Peaceful Gathering is working towards acquiring a parcel of land that can become an Inter-Tribal Farm for us all, a place we can grow our own Native Food, teach the next generation how to be self-sufficient, and let the Elders with us know that we haven't forgotten their teachings and the old ways.
In Keeping with these teachings, Peaceful Gathering Place will become a mobile unit by acquiring an RV, and traveling throughout New England.
April 24 We will discuss Healthy Eating
