This Week in Native American News (10/16/2020): Recovering, fighting, and educating

When Jesus says, “Feed my sheep,” as Christians, we understand Jesus is telling Peter to continue His ministry, shepherding the believers, feeding them God’s Word. But there are many stories where Jesus literally fed his flock: the feeding of the 5,000, the Lord’s Supper, and right before he speaks to Peter in this story, he feeds him fish and bread.

At Lutheran Indian Ministries, we believe in the healing and restorative Word of God, and we understand that the physical and emotional care we can provide builds trust and opens the hearts of those who might otherwise close themselves off to knowing our loving and unchanging Heavenly Father.

We will continue to feed his sheep, spiritually and physically.

These instances remind us that, even while someone may be struggling and may even be at what they feel is their lowest point, God is still present, the gifts He’s given still available, and strengths still evident.
