Presenter: Janice E. Billy Slide2
“when you hear, it comes in one ear, it goes to your mind, you think about it, it goes to your compassion, your caring, your heart, that the Creator has given you, then it goes to your experience, with your hands, then it goes to your walking the talk with your feet. It goes around several paths and it hits all senses before it comes out of your mouth.” (Elder
Schoot
