Our Gratitude Is As Large as Devils Tower!!!
Devils Tower Winter
Winter has come fast, furious, deep and early to South Dakota & Wyoming. 

Donations are needed to provide heat and electricity for the Clinic at Porcupine on Pine Ridge Reservation. 

Dear Friends and Family,

We are Praying that You had the Happiest of Thanksgivings. We ALL have many reasons to give THANKS!!!!!!

Many activities and services on Pine Ridge Reservation have literally been frozen and buried, with snows piling over 2 feet and temperatures dropping to well below zero. In the midst of this Porcupine Clinic has been a flurry of activity, with the Clinic providing shelter for many and our Public Health Nurses traveling through the weather and snow drifts to take needed Medical Care to those stranded and in need.

While Juliana and Frank remain in DC, caring for a dying relative, they are struggling to keep up with The Clinic’s increased fuel and electrical bills.  Mary Sell, our Treasurer, is braving the harsh conditions to bring provisions and medical supplies for the Clinic and Public Health Nurses. The Need is Great, right now. Please help.

We have contacted 2 Benevolent Donors, who choose to remain anonymous. One will match any contributions, up to $500. The other will match any additional donations up to $3,000 ! This is a remarkable opportunity to watch Your gift double, and go directly into action.  Please Help!!  Thank You for Your generous support of Devils Tower-Sacred To Many People.  All donations are tax deductible. 

Gunderson Lutheran provides medical services once a month.  The Clinic is the closest medical facility for people in the Porcupine area, providing assistance and office space for the Traveling Public Health Nurses.  It has hosted screening clinics, testing services and is a resource for international teams who provide services to the residents. 

As we enjoy a long, warm Thanksgiving Weekend, digesting large meals, and meditating Christmas Present purchases, please take a moment and help us  Make a Gift to Those Who Suffer.

Your donation will be immediately doubled, Your Heart will be Fuller for it & the Needs of those not-so-fortunate will be met!!!!
