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.
