Learning about the Houma people

Lee Ann's information about the Houma nation hooked my interest and I found that the tribal Council has a web site: http://www.unitedhoumanation.org It is very out of date, but there is some good material there, as well as in the Wikipedia article. It reminded me of the fact that there are so many small Native American groups in California and across the nation who have no voice. I am looking forward to the meeting that Cheryl has set up on Tuesday evening with the pastor and some of the Tribal Council leadership. This also has mean wondering... does anybody on the team or in the congregation have any connections with Native American communities in the South Bay area?

It was great yesterday to sense the excitement in our group about going to Dulac. Thanks everyone for the great food. Thanks Greg, Cheryl, Lee Ann and others for great leadership.
