On August 16th and 17th we visitted the Spirit of God Campmeeting on the Flathead Reservation, which was hosted by Pastor Dean and Annie Buffalo.

FIRST NATIONS WOMEN'S CONFERENCE. On August 18 & 19 we went to Billings for the annual First Nations Women's Conference that is hosted by Aglow International and the Intercultural Team. It was a wonderful time of fellowship and ministry.

On August 20 & 21 we joined the Aglow Intercultural Team and Broken Walls at the 2005 Crow Fair at Crow Agency. On Saturday I was honored to officiate the marriage ceremony of three lovely woman who wanted to make a public commitment to the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and Husband. Agnes GunHammer, Daisy GunHammer and Dianna Broncheau are all single women ... orphans and widows .. who desired to have a ceremony to signify their commitments to be completely devoted to the Lord. It was a beautiful wedding.

Then on Sunday we were blessed to witness the awesome Sunday morning worship service at the 2005 Crow Fair dance arena where Jonathan Maracle and Broken Walls ministered through music and the Word. This was a historical moment that truely made a positive impact on the Crow community. For the very first time, as far as anyone can remember, people honored the Sunday Morning Worship service guest (Jonathan, Kris, Jeremy) with money. One by one people in the stands began to take money out into the arena and place it on the drum!! A HUGE honor!! Praise the Lord. Also, during the service, there were people that began to step out into the arena and dance with the music and songs. It was a AWESOME. Thank you to all who made that possible. Praise the Lord! Thanks also to Pastor Ken Pretty On Top, the Aglow Team and the Pow-wow committee.
