Medicine Wheel Teachings

Held every 1st Saturday of the Month from 1-4pm
First Class Starts August 2, 2008

The newly forming Snake Clan Medicine Wheel teachings will be taught by Roy Wilson (Grandfather) the Spiritual Leader and Storyteller of the Cowlitz tribe and Kyle Ward who will teach how to contact the spirit helpers of the medicine wheel by journeying to them to help you in every day ordinary life to ask for guidence, learning and assistance.

Roy is also a published author and a former minister. Currently there are 38+ active Clans of Roy's teachings across the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe with a gathering of the Clans at least once a year here in the PNW. We are truly honored that he has agreed to help us establish this new clan.
Please bring your drum and/or rattle, bottle of water, an open mind and heart to hear Roy and Kyle as they teach the medicine wheel while weaving the traditional Native American ways and beliefs with other cultures for a greater understanding of walking the

Red Road

with Creator.
A love offering placed in the basket would greatly be appreciated to help pay for Roy's teachings, time, travel expenses and space rental.
