News Statement released on 6/17/10
For Immediate Release
JUNE 18-23 SET FOR 2010 NATIONAL SACRED PLACES PRAYER DAYS
Washington, DC — Observances and ceremonies will be held across the country from June 18 through June 23 to mark the 2010 National Days of Prayer to Protect Native American Sacred Places.
The observance in Washington, D.C. will be held on Monday, June 21 at 9:00 a.m. on the United States Capitol Grounds, West Front Grassy Area (see details under the Washington, D.C. listing in the alphabetical list on the following pages).
Descriptions of certain sacred places and threats they face, as well as times and places for public commemorations are listed below.
Some of the gatherings highlighted in this release are educational forums, not religious ceremonies, and are open to the general public.
Others are ceremonial and may be conducted in private.
In addition to those listed below, there will be observances and prayers offered at other sacred places that are under threat and at those not endangered at this time.
“Native and non-Native people nationwide gather at this time for Solstice ceremonies and to honor sacred places, with a special emphasis this year on sacred waters and those beings that depend on them,” said Suzan Shown Harjo (Cheyenne & Hodulgee Muscogee).
She is President of The Morning Star Institute, which organizes the National Sacred Places Prayer Days.
“Ceremonies are being conducted as Native American peoples engage in legal struggles with federal agencies that side with developers that endanger Native sacred places,” said Ms. Harjo.
“Once again, we call on Congress to build a door to the courts for Native nations to protect our traditional churches. Many sacred places are being damaged because Native nations do not have equal access under the First Amendment to defend them.”
All other peoples in the United States can use the First Amendment to protect their churches, but the Supreme Court closed that door to Native Americans in 1988.
The Court, from 1988 to 2009, has declined to allow federal religious freedom statutes to be used to protect Native American sacred places or the exercise of Native American religious freedom at sacred places.
“Today, Native Americans are the only peoples in the United States who do not have a constitutional or statutory right of action to protect sacred places or our exercise of religious freedom there,” said Ms. Harjo.
“That simply must change as a matter of fairness and equity. Native nations have been cobbling together protections based on defenses intended for other purposes. Some may permit a place at the table when development is being contemplated, but Native peoples are not taken seriously because the agencies and developers know that the Supreme Court does not appear inclined to hear lawsuits which lack a tailor-made cause of action.”
“The Obama Administration is strengthening consultation and sacred sites Executive Orders,” said Ms. Harjo, “but executive orders do not create legal protections.”
During his presidential campaign in 2008, Sen. Barack Obama addressed this issue as part of his Native American policy platform for religious freedom, cultural rights and sacred places protection:
“Native American sacred places and site-specific ceremonies are under threat from development, pollution, and vandalism.
Barack Obama supports legal protections for sacred places and cultural traditions, including Native ancestors’ burial grounds and churches.”
“Native American people are heartened that President Obama is fulfilling his promise,” said Ms. Harjo. “And we look forward to the day when the President calls on Congress to create a right of action so we can defend our holy places. Over 20 years have passed without Congress creating a door to the courthouse for Native Americans. Now, with the support of the President, we pray that this will be the last year we are denied justice.”
The 2010 observances will be the eighth of the National Prayer Days to Protect Native American Sacred Places.
The first National Prayer Day was conducted on June 20, 2003, on the U.S. Capitol Grounds and nationwide to emphasize the need for Congress to enact a cause of action to protect Native sacred places.
That need still exists.
Native peoples also are encouraged that the U.S. is reviewing the United Nations’ Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and consulting with tribal leaders about whether or not to adopt it.
The Declaration includes the following statements regarding sacred places:
“Article 11, 1: Indigenous peoples have the right to practise and revitalize their cultural traditions and customs. This includes the right to maintain, protect and develop the past, present and future manifestations of their cultures, such as archaeological and historical sites, artifacts, designs, ceremonies, technologies and visual and performing arts and literature.
“Article 11, 2: States shall provide redress through effective mechanisms, which may include restitution, developed in conjunction with indigenous peoples, with respect to their cultural, intellectual, religious and spiritual property taken without their free, prior and informed consent or in violation of their laws, traditions and customs.”
“Article 12, 1: Indigenous peoples have the right to manifest, practice, develop and teach their spiritual and religious traditions, customs and ceremonies; the right to maintain, protect, and have access in privacy to their religious and cultural sites; the right to the use and control of their ceremonial objects; and the right to the repatriation of their human remains.”
“Article 25: Indigenous peoples have the right to maintain and strengthen their distinctive spiritual relationship with their traditionally owned or otherwise occupied and used lands, territories, waters and coastal seas and other resources and to uphold their responsibilities to future generations in this regard.”
Arizona: Mount Graham, Dzil Nchaa Si An
Mount Graham is sacred to the Western Apache people and is known to the San Carlos Apache as Dzil Nchaa Si An.
It is a holy landscape where Gaahn or Mountain Spirits reside and ancestral Apache rest.
It is a place of ceremonies and medicine plants, and home to the endangered red squirrel.
The Pinaleño Mountains or Mount Graham is a unique ecological treasure.
It is the tallest mountain in southern Arizona and encompasses six different life zones from the valley floor to its peak at 10,720 ft.
Called a “Sky Island” ecosystem, the old growth forests on Mount Graham’s summit are the Arizona equivalent of rainforests.
The abundant springs and high altitude meadows have offered sustenance and a source of healing to Apache people who live in the desert.
The cool moist characteristics of the Mountain have nurtured 18 different plants and animals found nowhere else in the world.
In the 1980s, the University of Arizona and their partners at the time, including the Vatican and the Smithsonian Institution, chose Mount Graham as the site to construct an observatory with seven large telescopes known as the Columbus Project.
Beginning in 1988, the Arizona congressional delegation succeeded in gaining exemptions for the project from the endangered species, environmental, historical preservation and other laws.
In 1989, the University of Arizona was granted a 20-year special use permit by the Coronado National Forest and the U.S. Forest Service, and appropriation riders kept the project flush with public benefits without having to abide by federal laws or regulations, including federal Indian laws intended to protect religious freedom, burial grounds and cultural properties.
Vatican spokesmen stated that Mount Graham was not a religious or sacred place.
University employees and lobbyists attempted to undermine the reputations of Apache religious leaders and practitioners, and retained at least one San Carlos tribal official to testify that the Mountain was not sacred or significant to the Apache peoples.
For decades, Apache peoples, scientists, conservationists and university students have resisted the University of Arizona’s decision to build the telescopes on the Mountain’s summit.
Even though frequent cloud cover makes telescope viewing marginal and Mount Graham was ranked 38th in a study of astronomical sites in the U.S., the Arizona congressional delegation and the University have persisted with the project.
Today, the construction of telescopes and resulting federal closure of the Mountain’s top are desecrating the Mountain and its irreplaceable relationship with Apache peoples.
The struggle continues to protect the natural and cultural heritage of Mount Graham from the precedent-setting destruction still being caused by the University in building their observatory on Mount Graham.
The efforts of cultural protection and environmental organizations and affected Tribes to protect the sacredness of Mount Graham continue unabated.
The University of Arizona is now operating its observatory without a valid special use permit.
Its 20-year federal permit expired on April 19, 2009.
The University has asked the Coronado National Forest for a new permit, but, as of June of 2010, a decision on whether to grant the permit has not yet been made.
The Forest Service has determined that it needs to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to gather information as to the pros and cons of granting a new permit.
The University has objected strenuously to a new EIS. From what little information the Mount Graham Coalition and the San Carlos Apache Tribe have learned, the Forest Service’s and the University’s lawyers are “in discussions” to determine the final form of the permit renewal process.
There are a number of reasons for the Forest Service to deny a new permit.
The lapsed permit had a number of terms and conditions that were violated by the University.
Many of these conditions should have led to the revocation of the permit but did not.
All of these violations need to be studied to determine whether the University can follow the rules of a new permit.
The conditions of Mount Graham have changed substantially since the permit was granted and the observatory is even less compatible with the religious and ecological importance of Mount Graham.
Since the permit was granted, the “shape” of Mount Graham has been deemed eligible for placement on the national list of historic places.
In addition, the Forest Service now acknowledges that Mount Graham is a Traditional Cultural Property to Western Apache people and has taken steps to consult (although it has a long way to go) with traditional Apache about the sacred nature of the Mountain and how to protect it.
The University may go to Congress for yet another exemption to religious freedom and environmental laws and to force the Forest Service to issue a new permit.
Supporters of Mount Graham would be the last to hear of any lobbying along these lines and must be ever vigilant to stop this from happening.
For these and many other reasons, it is important for supporters of Apache peoples and Mount Graham to urge the Forest Service to deny the University a new permit and require that the existing telescopes on Mount Graham be removed.
After 20 years of construction, the large telescope project is still not complete and is useless as a scientific instrument.
Although the primary mirrors are in place on the telescope, the two secondary mirrors, which are indispensable for the telescope, were broken by the University of Arizona.
One was broken while being installed in the telescope and the other was broken at the University’s mirror lab. It will be at least several years before replacement mirrors are cast and ready for the telescope.
Since the telescope was originally designed, the University realized what studies had shown all along: Mount Graham is not suitable for a large telescope because of weather and other factors.
To compensate for the poor placement of the telescope, the University is attempting to add electronic correction equipment to the telescope to compensate for the poor “seeing.”
However, this equipment is a long way from being perfected.
Several fires devastated the top of Mount Graham in past years.
They were fought to protect the telescopes more than the ecosystem and, as a result, much damage was done to the Mountain that could have been avoided.
The Forest Service has decided to thin the forest and otherwise manipulate the ecosystem to try to protect what remains and to restore what has been damaged.
The final decision on what “treatments” will be carried out will be released soon.
However, there may still be time to weigh in with the Forest Service to make sure that any plan helps and not hurts the Mountain.
It also appears that, while the University is unwilling to voluntarily withdraw from Mount Graham, it does admit that serious mistakes were made that it does not to want to make again. Now is the time to gently work with the University to urge it to correct past mistakes.
Prayers and diligence are needed now more than ever for Mount Graham.
The ecosystem is under serious threat from climate change and other patterns of destruction; there is an opportunity for the Forest Service to deny a new permit for the telescopes and require they be removed; and there is a chance to protect the existing ecosystem and restore some of what has been lost.
And, the sacredness of Mount Graham continues to be challenged and, while the Mountain is able to protect itself, supporters can help to protect it.

Arizona: San Francisco Peaks
The San Francisco Peaks are on federal land that is sacred to Apache, Hopi, Hualapai, Navajo, Yavapai and other Native nations.
The San Francisco Peaks are home to many sacred beings, medicine places and origin sites. Myriad ceremonies are conducted there for healing, well-being, balance, commemoration, passages and the world’s water and life cycles.
Indeed, the U.S. Forest Service has indicated that the San Francisco Peaks are sacred and holy to over thirteen Tribes in the southwestern United States.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Forest Service and the privately owned Snowbowl ski resort, which is located on the San Francisco Peaks, plan to expand the ski area and to use recycled sewage to make artificial snow.
The expansion and sewage-to-snow plans could have a disastrous impact on the Native religions and people and on the water and health of the entire region.
The creeping recreational development has concerned Native spiritual leaders and tribal officials for decades, but current plans far exceed the past activity at the resort.
The area is within the Coconino National Forest.
Native nations attempted to protect the San Francisco Peaks in court.
The District Court ruled for the development in January 2006.
In March 2007, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the lower court’s decision and ruled for the Hopi Tribe, Navajo Nation and others.
A three-judge panel of the Ninth Circuit ruled that the Forest Service violated the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the National Environmental Policy Act in allowing the Snowbowl Resort to expand over 100 acres of rare alpine ecosystem, part of the area that is sacred to Native Peoples.
The federal government challenged that decision and petitioned the Ninth Circuit for rehearing en banc.
Such petitions are rarely granted, but the Court granted this one.
The case was argued in front of the 11-judge en banc panel of the Ninth Circuit in Pasadena in December 2007. The Ninth Circuit issued the decision of the en banc panel on August 8, 2008, ruling in favor of development.
The Native nations submitted a writ of certiorari for the U.S. Supreme Court. On June 8, 2009, the Supreme Court declined to review the decision.
The Tribes attempted to reach some sort of administrative accommodation with the new Administration, but such efforts have not borne fruit.
The Save the Peaks Coalition subsequently filed suit against the federal government on a NEPA issue.
Oral arguments on the case were scheduled for June 14, 2010.
The Court unilaterally issued a new order in May, requiring briefing on the issue of res judicata and rescheduling the oral argument to July 16, 2010, at the U.S. Federal Courthouse in Phoenix, Arizona.
Gatherings and prayer vigils are being held at the Courthouse.

The following is a portion of a story on AZ Central news contributed by Joan Lewis, a member of the Victory Lutheran Church women’s group
When the women of Victory Lutheran Church gathered for their recent Christmas brunch, they were treated to an unusual collection of centerpieces … During the brunch, which featured music director Melanie DeYoung as the speaker, the group outlined their accomplishments during the year, which included making quilts and rolling bandages.
During their monthly meetings, they 79 quilts that were taken to South Minnesota to be used by Lutheran World Relief. Several other smaller quilts will be delivered to the nursing homes around Mesa or donated to the Lutheran Social Services of the Southwest.
In addition, Global Health Ministries in Minneapolis received five boxes of rolled bandages.
Other projects that received monetary offerings were Project Comfort, the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, Arizona State University Lutheran Student Ministry, and the Heifer Project.
Joan Lewis is a member of the Victory Lutheran Church women’s group.

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

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.”
Preview story on April 9, 2009 in Pittsburgh Tribune-Review and Pittsburgh Live about area church group heading to NEML to paint. Pastor Susan C. Schwartz heads Hope Lutheran Church of Forest Hills and St. John Lutheran Church in Swissvale and Kathy Gaberson, a Hope Lutheran member.

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.”

Navajo Lutheran Mission: 2009 livestock vaccinations by Church of the Cross in Sacramento, CA
Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ: 2009 livestock vaccinations at the Navajo Nation reservation by missionaries from the Lutheran Church of the Cross in Sacramento, CA
During July 2009, volunteers from the Lutheran Church of the Cross in Sacramento, CA visited the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ to assist the Navajo people with the health of their livestock.
Despite the extreme summer heat and the remote Navajo homes, church members helped deworm and vaccinate 500 sheep and goats plus 200 horses.
The volunteers from the Lutheran Church of the Cross paid for the expense of vaccinating over 700 livestock.
The vaccination program badly needs funding and anyone wish to help should contact the Navajo Lutheran Mission (see contact info below).
The group also did building repairs and rehab around the mission. On their off time, the group ventured to some of the area’s most beautiful rock formations and sites. (See photo collages at end of this post).
The Navajo Lutheran Mission extends special thanks to Arizona Navajo musician Anthony Maloney, who music is featured in this video and will be used in upcoming videos (scroll down for more info and links about Anthony Maloney).
Songs by Maloney included in this video are “Our Warriors” and “A Better Life.”

Song about the reality of being plagued by Alcoholism on the Rez.
It is happening, not just on our reservations, but with in our community. There is really nothing to do, but let the abuser realize the facts of their addiction and its consequences.
No lyrics on this one.
I shouldn’t have wrote this song in the first place, though it takes the anger out of me, because it was a path that I was on.

Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bellbrook, OH ships clothing, other items to Navajo Lutheran Mission in Arizona
Truckloads of clothing and other items sent to Navajo Lutheran Mission in recent years by Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bellbrook, Ohio
Church also helps other Native American communities including Hopi
In recent years, the Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bellbrook, Ohio sent four shipments of clothing and supplies to the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ, and to the Hopi Reservation, Second Mesa, AZ.
“We traveled to Rock Point and had the privilege of attending worship and spending a day at the school with the children,” said Carla Becker, wife of Pastor Steve Becker adding the group sent clothing and other items to the NELM in 2004 and 2006.
“The Sunday we were (at the Navajo Lutheran Mission), we rode in the van with Bobby Yazzi as he picked up people for church,” she said “It was a wonderful experience, and I purchased a Navajo weaving from his aunt, Lolita Begay, which I treasure.”

Ohio Vacation Bible School students raise money for Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ
Warren, Ohio Tribune Chronicle news story from July 19, 2009 on TribToday.com
Children collect money for Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ
Youth from churches in Hubbard, Ohio attending a Vacation Bible School helped the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ and children at the new Akron Children’s Hospital of the Mahoning Valley, according to a news story in the Warren, Ohio Tribune Chronicle.
Approximately 120 students and more than 50 volunteers, made up of both adults and teens, met the challenge and went beyond anyone’s wildest expectations.
Hubbard children attending VBS also raised $300 in offerings to support the work at the Navajo Lutheran Mission School in Rock Point, Ariz. where Navajo children go to learn the three R’s in a religious setting, but also are given the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Navajo culture.
Sponsoring churches include Central Christian Church, First Baptist Church, First Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church, Grace Lutheran Church, and St. Patrick’s Church of Hubbard.
