Sunday Service – “Indigenous Peoples Day”
Sunday Service – “Indigenous Peoples Day”
with Rev. Tracy Belonging may be about being part of something greater than ourselves and yet often our culture turns belonging into a material transaction- such as, this belongs to me.

What should we be considering around land issues where some believe the land belongs to them and others believe they belong to the land?
