May our Spirit
touch yours as you browse through our Nechi
Training, Research and Health Promotions Institute
home page.
Our old people say "Everything is Related", so I hope
you feel the energy of our unique organization. While we are an Aboriginal educational,
research and health promotions centre, the true description is, we are a "healing
movement". There were a group of Elders who gathered for a ceremony long,
long time ago. In that ceremony they were told, "Our people are in our midnight
and we will come into our daylight when the Eagle lands on the Moon. When the
Eagle lands on the moon we will become world leaders."
That midnight was the government policy to outlaw our ceremonies,
the Indian Act, alcoholism, death, the flu of 1918 and being removed from our
families and culture and placed into residential schools.
The message the astronauts sent back to earth in 1969 when they
landed on the moon was, "The Eagle Has Landed". The old people knew the time had come. The time had come to
come into our daylight.
Welcome to Nechi "my
friend or helper".
