On behalf of the Tanahuachi Kiva Native American Church I (Buffalo Hump) am happy to announce a very special 2-day event beginning Friday, December 9 in Ocala, Florida. If you are committed to the Red Road, want to learn and experience the Red Road or would like to have a beautiful, powerful cleansing, healing and heart-opening experience, you will want to join us for this traditional Native American ceremony. Our elders and Road Men from Arizona, Glen Sweetgrass of the Pima Nation and Carl Hubbard of the Navajo Dene Nation, will be joining us to conduct a traditional, sacred, medicine, prayer meeting.

This ceremony will provide a great way to heal, cleans and open your heart. We open this space to those who are committed to doing their own inner work and experiencing the subsequent blessings in their lives. Regardless of your individual path, this work can benefit your personal life, relationships, spiritual connection and compliment your healing in any capacity as you focus your intention and prayer.

On Saturday morning, December 10, we will hold a sweatlodge to seal the ceremony, followed by a community feast for fellowship and celebration.

Items to bring:
a towel;
clothes you don’t mind getting wet and a little dirty;
warm clothes (jacket, sweater, etc. as nights may be cool);
blankets, pillows or other items you may desire to support you in sitting up during the ceremony (this is a traditional ceremony and you will be asked to sit up the entire night unless you have a physical issue that requires you to do otherwise); no chairs please.
A food dish to share with the community.
$100 donation is requested (to cover the price of tickets, mobility, shelter for gradfathers Glen and Carl and other expenses like wood and some other related to this medicine meeting).

Note: Women on their moon cycle cannot participate in the ceremony. However, they may be on the property outside of the ceremony should they choose.
