LIM offers resources for ‘Native American Sunday’

In keeping with “Native American Heritage Month” in November, Lutheran Indian Ministries (LIM) is offering a number of resources to congregations that want to observe “Native American Sunday” on Nov. 16, or an alternate date.

The resources available free from the LIM website are:
