December 2010: Advent Greeting from the Navajo Lutheran Mission

December 2010

Welcome to the 7th issue of The Navajo Way, the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission’s electronic newsletter!

 

Friends: December 6, 2010
We want you to join us as we walk together into God’s future!
This letter is an Advent greeting to all the many generous people and organizations who have made generous contributions to the ministry of the Navajo Lutheran Mission in the past year. We thank you for your kindness and generosity and we encourage you to partner us in the upcoming year.
Many churches and individuals take trips to overseas countries to learn about different cultures, and provide short term assistance. We are interested in taking mission to the next level of commitment and relationship. We seek a life of common prayer, mutual visits, shared work in mission, and the financial and spiritual gifts that come from long-term relationships. In the New Year we will be sending you a brochure listing the many ways in which our partnership can take concrete shape, and we ask you for your help in imagining how our relationship can grow into the future, to our mutual benefit. So, during this season, when so many of us are determining our budgets for the coming year, we ask that you remember the Navajo Lutheran Mission and become a partner in mission with us.
The Upcoming Year
Our Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission is in an exciting and challenging process of developing a charter contract with the State of Arizona. The development of a charter school will provide the mission with substantially more financial resources once we are licensed. Obtaining charter school status will also result in a better funded and more family oriented religious education program.
If your contribution can only be prayer this year, please pray for us as we implement our new vision here at Rock Point. Certainly though, you can enliven your prayers by contributing financially to the future of our mutual Mission. You can be part of a bridge to the future by making a financial commitment in your budget for next year and with gifts now. What do you think? Will you renew your commitment to our partnership? We pray that you will.

To our friends and family of supporters, to all those who wish us well, who pray for us, to those who give so generously of their time and talent. On behalf of the staff, the Board of Directors, and the members of the House of Prayer, we wish you a very blessed and Merry Christmas, and a Happy and Peace filled New Year.

Lynn & Deborah Hubbard
Navajo Lutheran Mission
Advent 2010

Please consider partnering with us in the coming year to become
“A Mission With a Mission,”

and impact the lives of the Navajo children and families of Rock Point, AZ.

In their January 2010 publication “Trinity Topics,” the church told their Congregation:

“Rock Point Navajo Lutheran Mission: We received a thank you for the $2090.46 we sent them of which $1000.00 was a match from Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.

Our two sponsored children have sent us Thanksgiving cards.

Look on the bulletin board in Beilstein Hall to see their colorful hand made cards.

In the Mission’s recent letter, it was reported that renovations have been made to some of the Missions facilities including the “House of Prayer”.

The Health Clinic (closed for several years) re-opened in September with volunteer Nurse Practitioners so that they are able to provide more services to the Navajo people.”

Navajo Lutheran Mission 2009 Installation: Bishop Talmage says humble approach best

Installation of Rev. Dr. Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at Navajo Lutheran Mission
ELCA Grand Canyon Bishop Steve Talmage calls for humble approach in working with tribe

Bishop Talmage acknowledges God was at work with Navajo long before missionaries arrived

(Rock Point, Arizona) – The fourth video on the Installation of Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (NELM) in Rock Point, Arizona by Bishop Steve Talmage of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Grand Canyon Synod.

Bishop Talmage installed the Hubbards on Sun., June 7, 2009.

In this video, Bishop Steve Talmage talks Navajo medical milestones like Dr. Lori Arviso Alvord, who in 1994 was the first Navajo woman to be board certified in surgery. (See photo collage below)

I believe there is a need to maintain Jesus’s spirit of humility in seeking to discover the bridges that can be made and even crossed between the cultures and histories that exist in this place, Bishop Talmage told those gathered for the Installation Service.

In our less than perfect history of over 50 years of ministry at Rock Point, those who have come from the outside have struggled to be humble, patient and willing to recognize the need to discover how God has already been at work among the people here, Bishop Talmage said.

Love the stranger, love the neighbor and a friend with an open heart – with the open heart that Jesus has for all of God’s children,” said Bishop Talmage of the effect of the mission and school on those who do not know Jesus.

Bishop Talmage’s message of humility and realization that God has long been a part of the Navajo culture even before missionaries resonates with Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who became executive director of the Navajo Lutheran Mission in the spring of 2009 and has a been an outspoken advocate for Christian respect for the American Indian culture and traditions.

While still following the original goals of the mission, Rev. Hubbard is taking a respectful and humble approach to the mission’s work in the Navajo community.

He believes the purpose of the mission is to minister with the Navajo not for the Navajo.

With the century-long horrors of the Christian boarding lasting to mid 1900s still fresh in elders’ minds, Hubbard believes we need to practice healing and reconciliation, not judge people whose path to the divine life might be different than ours.

Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who sings and plays guitar, is planning a series of concerts starting in the fall of 2009 at churches and other venues in Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, California.

The free fundraising concerts are to raise awareness about mission projects and the new Mission in Reverse model that the mission is operating under since he arrived in the Spring of 2009.

Thoughts, quotes and photos from Carol Buckley at Arizona Flutes

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:

I hold this ancient instrument to my heart

And bless it with love.

I ask that my breath flow with ease

As my fingers dance to the rhythm

Of the ancient spirits joy.

May the music coming from this ancient instrument

Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,

Comfort and sooth troubled souls

And bring joy to the lives it touches.

Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,

In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Thoughts, quotes and photos from Carol Buckley at Arizona Flutes

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:

I hold this ancient instrument to my heart

And bless it with love.

I ask that my breath flow with ease

As my fingers dance to the rhythm

Of the ancient spirits joy.

May the music coming from this ancient instrument

Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,

Comfort and sooth troubled souls

And bring joy to the lives it touches.

Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,

In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Travis Terry is a native Flutist of the Pima Nation who is born of the indigenous Gila River Pima Nation in Sacaton, Arizona.

On his myspace page, Native flutist Travis Terry says:

“I grew up surrounded by ethnic music and instruments of long ago, including the Native flute,” Terry said. “As a child I had natural appreciation for music, which contributed to me becoming a self-taught flutist in my adult years. My military service has sent me around the world exposing me to the musical traditions of various cultures.”
“Ethnic music was a continual interest and drew me closer to this dream of creating music. I have always been grateful to my parents (Irving and Caroline) for supporting my dreams and at the same time continually teaching me and my sisters (Denise and Dawn) the indigenous Pima culture, traditions and language. These values have aided me in blending contemporary culture with this heritage of the ‘Desert People.’ This conscious blending of cultures is very much reflected in my musical compositions and playing style.”
“After my military service, I visited Canyon De Chelly where my good fortune led me to meet my lovely wife Cara and settle in Chinle, AZ. Cara and her family taught me the ways and language of the Dine (Navajo) people.”
