The Gathering Results - Quotes by Elders Council Member and Co-Education Director Sue Peoples

11/20/2015

"God, our creator, uses our experiences, positive and negative, as thread, to weave together who we are and how we interact with each other in our world.

The love, acceptance and Native American awareness that was born of the Gathering was certainly a positive thread in the tapestry of Clarke County residences’ lives.

Witnessing people from different walks of life talking together, dancing and celebrating a unique cultural experience was validation that we can love one another in spite of our outward differences."

The Gathering 2015 Results - Quotes from CEO & Host

11/20/2015

By Chris (Comeswithclouds) White
CEO Sanctuary on the Trail and Host to The Gathering

    "We reached a new dimension of humanity that we believed in, then saw for the first time."

     "We pulled it together. We united. They united with us; tears of inexpressible healing and evidence of Creator God at work."

    "The Gathering was an experiment in humanity. We knew going in, not everyone would get it."

    "Our goal was to plant this spiritual seed within the individual. We found that the hearts of the people attending The Gathering is fertile ground. We saw it in dancing, in the arena holding hands, in tears of joy, laughter and smiles, and the expression of acceptance and unconditional love among strangers."
    We saw it in tears of forgiveness of generational oppression where the lack of identity and uncertainty is in the hearts and minds of individuals. Where the light of ‘Mitakuye Oyasin’ showed we truly are all related; and part of the oneness of creation.

    "Know that the work we're doing now collectively may not be realized in our life time. It's a goal we're working towards, which will benefit people beyond any of our expectations or imaginations. As a peaceful people we can gather people to one sacred hoop and accomplish good."

    "This was the beginning of a new dimension in humanity. The possibilities that this planted seed will bring forth through individuals that received it."

    "The Gathering proved to be a homecoming of sorts – home within the heart."
