Organizations Filed Purposes:
ARAWAKA'S MAIN GOAL IS TO PROMOTE A BETTER RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HUMAN BEINGS AND OUR MOTHER EARTH. OUR PRAYER IS FOR THE FOLLOWING GENERATIONS: THAT THEY MAY INHERIT THE EARTH IN BETTER CONDITION THAN WE HAVE IT NOW. THE ONLY REAL PROBLEM WITH THE ECOLOGY OF THE PLANET RESIDES IN THE HUMAN BEINGS; THEREFORE OUR EFFORTS ARE DIRECTED TOWARDS DEVELOPING WAYS OF SPIRITUAL EDUCATION. WE INTEND TO INCREASE OUR AWARENESS AND TO AWAKEN OUR HEARTS TO THE LEVEL AT WHICH WE BECOME CAPABLE OF RECOGNIZING THE EARTH AS OUR MOTHER AND ALL THAT LIVE ON THE EARTH AS OUR RELATIVES AND OUR PARTNERS IN LIFE. OUR WORK FACES FOUR DIRECTIONS; INDIAN TRADITIONS; INDIVIDUAL HEALING; CHILDREN'S EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY LIFE.
INDIGINOUS SPIRITUAL TRADITIONS DURING THE 2018 YEAR WE RECEIVED PEOPLE FROM AROUND THE WORLD TO PRAY WITH US DURING OUR SUMMER CEREMONIES. WE HOSTED PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT CULTURES AND FAITHS AT ARAWAKA AND SHARED INDIGENOUS FORMS OF SPIRITUAL WORK IN A GOOD WAY, THE WAY THAT HAS BEEN PASSED ON FOR MANY GENERATIONS. ESTIMATED PARTICIPANTS: 385
EDUCATIONAL HEALING WE HOSTED FOUR WORKSHOPS FOR EDUCATION AND HEALING IN RELATION TO CREATING A DEEPER RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EARTH. ALL GROUPS ATTENDING THE WORKSHOPS THIS YEAR WERE PRIVATE GROUPS COMPOSED OF DIVERSE PEOPLE. WE HAVE WITNESSED IN MANY INSTANCES HOW PEOPLE'S LIVES WERE TRANSFORMED AFTER A FEW DAYS OF GOING DEEP WITH THIS WORK IN THE CONTEXT OF THE GROUP AND WILL CONTINUE TO OFFER GROUP WORK IN THE FUTURE. ESTIMATED PARTICIPANTS: 33
COMMUNITY LIFE SUMMERS ARE A RICH TIME FOR OUR ONGOING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS. DURING THIS YEAR WE HELD TWO LARGE COMMUNITY WORK WEEKS WHERE THE PEOPLE OF THE ARAWAKA COMMUNITY WERE INVITED TO STAY AT ARAWAKA TO WORK TOGETHER ON NEEDED MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND SMALL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS. ESTIMATED PARTICIPANTS: 90
