Recent Happenings.....

I’ve been researching the Cheyenne Indians and I have come across some interesting facts. The Cheyenne Language contains only 14 letters. The language unfortunately is dying because it’s never been written down out of fear that it might be taken from them.  Johnny Cash wrote a song about this tragedy called “Talking Leaves” here is the link if you want to check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLsE5JeAnLO.  Unfortunately, the youth are not being taught the language and it could be the death of it in the next two generations if nothing is written down.

The next thing I would like to talk about is my concern for the Northern Cheyenne. My first impression from hearing these facts is that the Cheyenne are not equipped to take on the challenges which surround them and eventually their culture may die out. I would like to empower the younger people to take responsibility for their culture and help restore it. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; that have been devastated for generations. Isaiah 61:4. 

I really do have a passion for people who have fallen beyond the edge of hope. While hope is lost on the reservation there are some who have refused to give up. This reminds of Rev. 7:9, After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. God has called all people groups to him. Please keep the Northern Cheyenne in your prayers, that the darkness would be lifted from their hearts and minds and God would reveal himself to them.

 I appreciate those who have already decided to support and pray for me.  I wanted to remind you that your support is vital and is just as important as me going. Not everyone is called to be a missionary but any missionary that does go can only go because of the support of the people that sent them.  Any donation in the amount 5, 10, or 15 per month would be much appreciated.
