Session Description
When the first Christian Missionaries came to the Navajo people they unfortunately brought more than the Gospel. They also brought the message that God could only be worshiped through the Western culture. This workshop will contain a collection of stories and lessons learned as I journey to understand what it means to be Navajo and Christian.

Contextualizing Worship: My journey to worship God as a Navajo Christian,
When the first Christian Missionaries came to the Navajo people they unfortunately brought more than the Gospel. They also brought the message that God could only be worshiped through the Western culture. This workshop will contain a collection of stories and lessons learned as I journey to understand what it means to be Navajo and Christian.
