We had two donated horses to be left on the reservation from Liberty Christian Center in MIdwest City, OK. An Equine Therapist and a veterinarian to do a dog and cat clinic was committed to traveling with us. We were moving full-steam ahead and then the wheels began to come off:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Equine Therapist could not make it.

We found a partner in Helena, MT that attends Mountain Family Fellowship and a beautiful horse was purchased (which will continue to be our path). It is thrilling to see the Holy Spirit\u2019s hand in this frontline war effort of ministry.<\/p>\n<p>We arrived, set up teepees and prepared for the outreach. It was exciting to learn the methods of setting up a teepee and along with it some of their cultural beliefs. We were blessed to work with Pastor Plummer, a Native American minister, as he would practice their beliefs unless it crossed his Christianity. This was a huge shift from former relationships where everything was evil and demonic. I personally have had this style of outreach with all the efforts of M25 for decades.<\/p>\n<p>The team picked up trash as a ministry tool. The Lord had given us this opportunity in years past, not only at the Reservations but at Bike Rallies. This is a huge thing for those putting on these events, due to the large volume of trash. When the Native Americans see \u2018white people\u2019 and when the bikers seen Christian Bikers picking up the trash, it impacts them of our desire to serve. One may think this is too much but I am reminded of our Savior coming to earth and serving the poor, the hurting, the outcast. M25 is in good company.<\/p>\n<p>The S. Carolina team setup a tent and did crafts with the children as a way to communicate with them the love of Jesus. The crafts were chosen that could be used to communicate with the children the Good News.<\/p>\n<p>We, along with a team from Houston, TX, manned a \u201cPrayer Tent\u201d where people came for free water and coffee. If they desired prayer, we would offer it. If only we had the time and space in this report to share the experiences we had serving.<a href=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1061\" src=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/08\/IMG_0116-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We were blessed to give away the War Horse this year as an award for winning a dance.

Esto es algo muy importante para quienes organizan estos eventos, debido al gran volumen de basura. Cuando los nativos americanos ven a \"gente blanca\" y cuando los motociclistas ven a Christian Bikers recoger la basura, les afecta nuestro deseo de servir. Uno puede pensar que esto es demasiado pero me recuerda a nuestro Salvador viniendo a la tierra y sirviendo a los pobres, los heridos, los marginados.
