Serving at celebration

a few weeks ago we did volunteer work for about four days at celebration, which is exactly what it sounds like; a celebration, for the Native American people here in Juneau to help them preserve their culture. It was really interesting, and gave me hope for those people to come to know the Lord. It was good that we served at celebration; in like the 1950's Christian missionaries came and were very degrading to their culture and oppressive. By serving at celebration in the name of Jesus we could show them that we Christians were accepting of their culture. I got to tell a few people why we were volunteering; I told them we were a group of college students up here for the summer to serve the community and share what we believe, our faith in Jesus, with people. We didn't get to have any deep discussions with any of them but I think we made a dent in changing their stereotypes with Christians that were given to them by the missionaries in the fifty's. WOULD YOU PRAY for the tlingit people; that they God would soften their hearts to the Gospel and that tlingits would come to know him and then reach their villages?
