"Migwetch Nibi" - Fundraiser for Lake Superior Nibi Walk

(CDT, UTC-05) (CDT, UTC-05)

All Nations Indian Church (or watch online), 1515 E 23rd, Minneapolis, MN

The Nibi (Water) Walks are Indigenous-led, extended ceremonies to pray for the water. Every step is taken in prayer and gratitude for water.

The Lake Superior Nibi Walk will begin August 1, 2023 and travel for 33 days around the lake in prayer. It will be led by Ojibwe elder Sharon Day. This event is raising funds to support the considerable logistics to make these prayer walks possible. We are particularly in need of donations to sponsor youth walkers. We walk for the water, and as we heal the water we heal all of life.

To learn more about Nibi Walks and the over 10,000 river miles we have traveled in prayer, go to nibiwalk.org
