We thank the team for their sacrificial giving to the week on Hopi land (AZ), Navajo (AZ/NM), the Zuni Pueblo (NM), and in Joseph City (AZ). We also thank the many who assisted in giving and in prayer. Here is a very brief overview…
Tuesday | On Hopi, the team multiplied into a work team and a visitation team. The Hopi villages are rebuilding after a long season of Covid. Delvin, an assistant admin. in Mishongnovi on Second Mesa, worked with our men getting the Mishongnovi community building ready for a new season.
We visited, encouraged and prayed with Bernalda in Old Oraibi; Harlan, chief of Walpi on First Mesa; Bertha Kinale, the very first traditional Hopi friend from Walpi; and at the Hopi Cultural Center we encouraged Molly (Hopi Chairman’s Admin) and her daughter, Laila. We freely gave as we saw the need.
Wednesday | We connected with Thelma and Vonda Claw (and Zoe and Aden) in Window Rock (Navajo capital), for fellowship and prayer. Everyone was physically and spiritually refreshed. They then drove to Gallup and treated the team to dinner!!!
Thursday | We prepared for the Family Fun Night event in Zuni and touched base with Zuni Governor Arden and a few of members of the Tribal Council.
Friday FFN | The Zuni have come through a long and difficult season and we brought a wave of joy! As the young were enjoying facepainting, giant jumpers, snow cones, and more, others were enjoying a memorable Bingo! Arden, the Zuni Governor, really connected with the people, which was something we had prayed for.
We also distributed many personal LuminAID solar lights.
The difference between the beginning of the event and the end was incredible and their appreciation was visibly expressed. We saw a dramatic change in everyone! Great work team!
PS. Congratulations to grandparents Loyd and Marnella (bottom row) and to Jalen and Cassie for Ellie Kucater-Yepa, born 2 days after we left!
