Native Grace Intertribal Fellowship of Cortez, Colorado, invites you to a Traditional Gourd Dance on Saturday, August 31st from noon to sunset.  

In a culture where many Native churches teach that traditional practices are "evil" or "of the devil," Native Grace stands for a very different, inclusive spirituality.  This community outreach--to both the Native and Anglo communities--is intended to showcase Native Grace's mission of teaching people that being both Native and Christian is a wonderful thing.

The day will include traditional dancing, music, food, artwork, and crafts.  Folks can stop by for a visit or make a whole day of it.  A traditional Native Feast of mutton stew will be served at approximately 6 pm.  Snacks and drinks are available throughout the day.
