One Heart, One Mind, One Spirit
We are grateful to gather, pray, and grow together. Plan to spend the day with us in preparation, prayer, and reciprocation. Following are details to answer questions and address any concerns you may have.
Arrival Time:
The prayer lodge is usually at 10 am, and we arrive at 9 am to set up and prepare the land for the ceremony. The men typically help by gathering firewood, cleaning the land, and preparing the lodge. The women are busy getting the kitchen ready for the feast.

What to Bring:
You’ll want to bring a towel, a water bottle, and water to drink. We sit on the ground during the prayer lodge, which can get pretty messy. There’s a private place to change if you want to bring a change of clothes for afterward.

The Land:
The land is divided into two separate locations—the front and back of the house. The front includes the kitchen and gathering spaces, where guests are typically invited when they visit your home.
