History and
Activities
Gadohi Usquanigodi Native American Spiritual Center was founded August
of 1994 with the Ven. Running Wolf, a Cherokee Medicine Man, as its Elder
Spiritual Leader. We provide for the continuance of traditional spiritual
and healing teachings of North American Indigenous people through our work.
This includes regular A si (sweat lodge) ceremonies and Ga nv no wa (prayer) circles at each of the Centers. We also have an annual spring U tse la s ka (Vision Quest) gathering and fall Elder’s Gathering. People from across the country and around the world come to participate in our activities and to receive spiritual guidance, teachings and healings from the Ven. Running Wolf, MSW. In addition, the center provides a Spiritual Leadership training program for those who wish to become authorized to conduct ceremony. The centers provide financial support to tribal elders, spiritual leaders and community supported activities whenever possible. Funds to support our activities come through donations from individuals and organizations across the country. |
