Pine Ridge Reservation

I lived on the Pine Ridge reservation for 5 years until 2009. I served the Lord and the Oglala Lakota people there at The Oglala Re-Creation and Worship Center in Oglala. The Lord is now leading us to minister in other places.

 There are always needs among Native American Ministries. You can visit our "links" page to see more about Native American Ministries. We now live in Casper, WY.
