Sacramental Healing
An
old legend tells that after the Resurrection, the Blood of
Christ began to glow, and finally became Light. A
Native American legend tells that when the Risen Christ walked
the land, the medicine plants sprang up where His Blood touched
the earth.
The
Cherokee word for medicine, healing therapy, and religion
are the same: nvwoti, literally, "it heals."
We
understand the Body of Christ as all healing medicines and
practices that relieve human suffering, whether physical,
emotional, or spiritual.
About the Native American Church
The Native American Church
was incorporated in 1918 with the vision that all races and
all peoples have the inalienable right and freedom to seek
out the truest forms of American Native indigenous healing.
Healing at all levels of human endeavor; spiritual, emotional,
mental and physical, is our God given heritage, our Divine
birthright given to every soul by Creator.
The Oklevueha Native American
Church, incorporated in 1997, is a federally recognized indigenous
healing religion. The Native American Church has the lawful
authority to conduct healing ceremonies and provide traditional
sacramental medicines to all who come for help, regardless
of ethnic origin.
Oklevueha
is working with others worldwide to form NACs where everyone,
regardless of race, sex, or financial ability, can participate
in the sacred ceremonies of the Native American Church. |
