My Friends

We invite all of you to attend this Taino Native American ceremony to honor those who have crossed over ahead of us to the Realm of the Ancestors. You are welcome to bring a photocopy picture of a loved one who has crossed over. Instead of the photo of the loved one you can bring a paper with a poem or a favorite saying of the person you wish to honor. You may also bring a photocopy of the loved one's favorite dog or favorite car or favorite house or anything else that this person loved. The photo or paper writing will be used in a traditional ceremony in which it will be placed in the sacred fire so that the prayers will rise to the spirit realm in the smoke of the sacred flame. Please also bring some food to share with other attendees at the end of the ceremony. Thank you.
