Luke 24:13-35 (NRSV further below) Scripture Reading is from First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament, copyright 2021by Rain Ministries, Inc., Used by permission of InterVarsity Press, Downer’s Grove IL From the dedication: We pray the First Nations Version will bring healing to those who have suffered under the dominance of colonial governments who, with the help of churches and missionary organizations, often took our land, our languages, our cultures, and even our children. As our Tribal Nations work hard to reclaim what has been stolen, it is our hope that the colonial language that was forced upon us can now serve our people in a good way, by presenting Creator Sets Free in a more culturally relevant context. Key to scriptural references: Creator Sets Free – Jesus Village of Warm Springs – Emmaus Honored by His Father – Cleopas Village of Peace - Jerusalem Seed Planter Village – Nazareth People of Iron - Romans One Who Hears – Simon Wrestles Wi
