Reaching those not like me . . .

 So, as CHRISTians, how do we celebrate a day to honor our original peoples here in North America? It is simple to me, I can pray about how I can reach them and others not like me

On this day when we celebrate indigenous people groups her in America, we can "pray for God to lead you to those who deeply care about the spiritual condition of the Native people on your campus or in your area. Pray for common ground and to build trust with those of good reputation within the traditional Native community, as well as with Native believers". (https://www.cru.org/us/en/train-and-grow/leadership-training/starting-a-ministry/launching/nations.html)

While on this day we celebrate a special people group, we should always be searching out others to win for Christ. If God's Word is truly to be honored, then we must be obedient to the Gospel call to go to all nations . . . all peoples.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations . . .(Matthew 28:19)and make earth look like heaven: After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. (Revelation 7:9)
