Visit: Round Dance (hosted at Yahoo Groups)

Round Dance is a discussion area for those who are interested in serving the needs of native communities in North America and around the world. We follow Jesus on the Red Road and welcome others to join us. Those who join this group must be willing to be cross-cultural, being willing to learn about others' ways and lives before trying to "serve" them.

This group is moderated and "respect" is required at all times. This is a place to learn and to ask questions. You are welcome to come and discuss, but this is not a place for devotionals, news items, or to post from other websites. Come and learn from all your relations!
