The Native American Church was brought to Canada in 1938 by George Lightfoot. Over time the rituals and ceremonies spread from reserve to reserve. This recording represents members of the SunRise Chapter in the Sturgeon Lake area of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The songs are a reflection of everyday concerns for these people. Their prayers ask for good health, love and understanding, the well being of their children and a safe walk on the road of life. Songs are sung in Cree with some English translations. There are four parts to each song which is the tradition in the Native American Church ceremony.
