Gulf Coast Oil Spill - Sioux Prayer Request

****** A Great Urgency ******

To All World Religious and Spiritual Leaders

My Relatives,

Time has come to speak to the hearts
of our Nations and their Leaders. I ask
you this from the bottom of my heart,
to come together from the Spirit of your
Nations in prayer.

We, from the heart of Turtle Island,
have a great message for the World;
we are guided to speak from all the
White Animals showing their sacred color,
which have been signs for us to pray
for the Sacred life of all things.
As I am sending this message to you,
many Animal Nations are being threatened,
those that swim, those that crawl, those
that fly, and the plant Nations,
eventually all will be affected from
the oil disaster in the Gulf.

The dangers we are faced with at this
time are not of spirit. The Catastrophe
that has happened with the oil spill
which looks like the bleeding of
Grandmother Earth, is made by human
mistakes, mistakes that we cannot afford
to continue to make.

I ask, as Spiritual Leaders, that we join
together, united in Prayer with the whole
of our Global Communities. My concern is
these serious issues will continue to worsen,
as a domino effect that our Ancestors have
warned us of in their Prophecies.

I know in my heart there are millions of
people that feel our united Prayers for
the sake of our Grandmother Earth are long
overdue. I believe we as Spiritual people
must gather ourselves and focus our thoughts
and prayers to allow the healing of the many
wounds that have been inflicted on the Earth.
As we honor the Cycle of Life, let us call
for Prayer circles globally to assist in
healing Grandmother Earth (our Unc'I Maka).

We ask for Prayers that the oil spill, this
bleeding, will stop. That the winds stay
calm to assist in the work. Pray for the
people to be guided in repairing this mistake,
and that we may also seek to live in harmony,
as we make the choice to change the destructive
path we are on.

As we pray, we will fully understand that
we are all connected. And that what we create
can have lasting effects on all life.

So let us unite spiritually, All Nations,
All Faiths, One Prayer. Along with this
immediate effort, I also ask to please
remember June 21st, World Peace and Prayer
Day/Honoring Sacred Sites day. Whether it
is a natural site, a temple, a church, a
synagogue or just your own sacred space,
let us make a prayer for all life, for good
decision making by our Nations, for our
children's future and well-being, and the
generations to come.

Onipikte (that we shall live),
Chief Arvol Looking Horse

19th generation Keeper
of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe



Please share this prayer request with
friends and family and others who you
feel can bring intentional power through
prayer to the healing of the situation
in the Gulf~~

Prayerfully,
Zoe
