A Note from Fr. Greg

As the seasons shift, we give thanks for two remarkable milestones at St. Joseph’s Indian School — our 50th Annual Powwow and our 100th year of mission.

For five decades, our wačhípi — powwow — has brought generations together in celebration of Lakota (Sioux) culture, community and faith. This year was especially meaningful as students, alumni, families, staff and supporters gathered once again in a sacred circle during our 50th Annual Powwow.

“And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart.”

Today, we see a harvest because faithful supporters like you never lost heart. Our students are growing, thriving and carrying their culture forward with strength and pride.

After 50 powwows and 100 years of mission, we are here because of faithful hearts like yours.

Philámayaye — thank you — for walking with us and making moments like this possible.

Peace and Blessings,

Fr. Greg Schill, SCJ
Chaplain
