Water Walks are focused and implemented in faith: faith in the water spirits, faith in the earth, faith in humankind and faith in the power of love. No amount of money is more powerful than these forces. When we spend time respecting and thanking the water for keeping us alive, it becomes impossible to abuse it. When we spend time praying for the water, we spend time praying for ourselves; in praying for ourselves we pray for all of our relatives.
In 2025 we will lead the Watpa Wakan Nibi Walk, a 4 day walk along the Rum River. In 2026 we will walk from the Gulf of Mexico to Lake Itasca.
We walk for the water, and as we heal the water we heal all of life. Your gift helps support the considerable logistics to make these prayer walks possible. Walks are also only a beginning. Our leader Sharon Day is a leading voice for the water and inspires all of us to do something for the water every day.
You can do something for the water every day by becoming a monthly donor to Nibi Walks.
Nibi Walks is a program of the Indigenous People's Task Force.
