I've spoken with traditional native elders, and they tell me their people were connected to their Creator long before the introduction of Jesus by settlers. I know many Christians who consider traditional native culture "evil." I know traditional natives who consider Christianity "evil" (Manifest Destiny, boarding schools, etc.). I've seen SO MANY families torn apart over this. I've seen people choose their church family over flesh and blood - to the point of bloodshed against their own people, for the good of the church.

Are you allowed to fully honor your traditional ancestors in your church, and do you think you will see them again in heaven?

I hope this isn't too personal.
