Aniwa Gathering 2024

'Waters of Peace’.

Our prayer for Aniwa Gathering 2024 was in honor of the memory of water and its incredible ability to carry information. We cultivated a current of prayer for world peace and the health of our waters and nations. At the heart of the Aniwa Gathering, a sacred water altar was created, where elders added samples from sacred springs near their homes. Over the four days of the Gathering, the elders infused these waters with prayers. As the event concludes, participants were invited to carry a portion of these blessed waters back to their local waterways, allowing our collective prayers to ripple far and wide.

About

Aniwa Gathering is an event bringing together 50 of the world's most respected Indigenous leaders and elders to share their wisdom over 4 days of ceremonies, healing, talks, cultural exchange, traditional music, and nature connection.

The elders will share their ancient ways of living in harmony with the natural world, calling in guidance and healing. Participants will learn how to develop a reciprocal relationship with Mother Earth and the elements, and gain a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness of all life.

Join us at the Aniwa Gathering to learn from unbroken Indigenous lineages and plant seeds of change for the next seven generations to come.

People of all colors and creeds are welcome.
