First Tears' Event at Eureka Springs
A quick update on what's happening and when.
I'm travelling with Irish prophet Brendan McCauley. Brendan 'coincidentaly' ends a 40 day fast the day we leave for Arkansas! it's an interesting story as to how I came to invite him on the trip.
Our First event happens at Eureka Springs on 30th Nov. This is near a significant stop on the 'Trail of Tears' and I think will set the tone for what God is doing on this journey.

Restoring Justice to the Land: A gathering of nations in pursuit of God’s heart
November 30, 2005
Eureka Springs, Arkansas
Purpose:To create a platform upon which corporate apology, repentance, and reconciliation can occur between Native American peoples, Celtic nations and their descendants, and the states and land of our region traveled by Native peoples while on the Trail of Tears.
From Arkansas, Missouri, and Southern Illinois, we will gather church leaders, intercessors, government officials and Native Americans from the five civilized tribes of the south - Seminole, Choctaw, Creek, Cherokee, and Chickasaw. Additionally, representatives from the European nations of Northern Ireland, Scotland, and England will be with us. The forefathers of these nations developed the first relationships with the indigenous peoples of America and wrote the defining historical Native American Removal Policies. These policies resulted in what is known as the “trail where they cried ” (Trail of Tears), a trail which led the Native peoples through Southern Illinois, Missouri, and finally Arkansas before dispersing them throughout Indian Territory, modern Oklahoma. Together we will join to share in a journey of reconciliation through acknowledgment, apology, and pursuit of healing through forgiveness, building of relationship, and walking together toward covenantal partnerships that will bring forth healing among all people groups, particularly among the Native American people.
At this time, United States Senate Resolution 15 is in process of appearing before the Senate for approval, with a similar resolution before the US House of Representatives (see www.NativeRes.org). Resolution 15 encourages all state governments to work toward reconciling relationship with Indian tribes within their boundaries. This gathering will serve as a step in this process for our region.
Mission:To work toward apology, reconciliation, and healing between the descendants of the Native American tribes, European nations, and descendants of European settlers throughout our region.
