We have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour.
Now you must go back and tell people that this is the Hour.
And there are things to be considered:

Where are you living?

What are you doing?

What are your relationships?

Are you in the right relation?

Where is your water?

Know your garden. It is time to speak your truth. Create your community.
Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for the leader.
This could be a good time.

There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift that there are those who will be afraid.
They will try to hold onto the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and they will suffer greatly.

Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore, and push off and into the river.

Keep our eyes open, and our heads above water. See who is in there with you and Celebrate.

At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all ourselves.

For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt.

The time of the lone wolf is over, Gather yourselves!

Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary.

All that you do now must be done in a sacred manner and in Celebration.

We are the ones we've been waiting for.

National Aboriginal Day, June 2st 2006
was celebrated many ways by many people in many places
For ITHA in Nanaimo, it was an opportunity to host a very special occasion, to honour our elders

In October of 2005, twenty-two First Nation Elders from Vancouver Island gathered at Tsa-Kwa-Luten Lodge
on Cape Mudge First Nation land, to share their stories of healing, survival, and mentorship
To thank them for this, ITHA's First Nation House of Healing sponsored The Feast of Creation
a DVD that is "a testament to the strength and humour of these remarkable individuals"
