Fuel the Journey: Support the Rainbow Tribe

The Rainbow Rises Again

Support Our Journey to the Lakota Sundance

Our Vision

Converging Paths is a spiritual and social-impact collective devoted to bridging cultures, technologies, and prayer in service of planetary healing. In May 2025, thanks to your generosity and prayers, we completed our fourth year supporting a sacred Sundance ceremony in the high desert of Joshua Tree, California. The ceremony was the most physically, spiritually, and emotionally powerful yet—uniting families, healing hearts, and renewing ancient bonds.

Now, something extraordinary has happened. Because of the depth and sincerity of our walk, we have been invited by the Lakota Elders to attend the official Sundance in South Dakota. This is not just a visit—it’s a blessing to bring our leadership, receive validation from the keepers of the original ceremony, and prepare the way for Sundance 2026 on gifted land in Utah.

Why Your Help Matters Now

We have already gathered over $3,500 worth of food, warm clothing, books, and propane for over 50 Lakota women and children living in third-world conditions on Pine Ridge—many without electricity, running water, or basic winter supplies. All that remains is to get the donations (and our leadership team) to the final Sundance of the year, where these items can be delivered in ceremony and with the dignity they deserve.

The one thing standing in our way is fuel.

This is where you come in.

Remaining Area of Need (Use of Proceeds):

Fuel Cards for trucks hauling the supplies and transporting Lakota families from New Mexico, Utah, and California

Support for Elders and Fire Keepers who will be guiding us in South Dakota

️ Logistics for the journey: meals on the road, safe travel, and security for those in our care

Every donation goes directly toward the fuel and road costs to complete this sacred mission.

The Heart of the Sundance

The Sundance is one of the most profound ceremonies of renewal, healing, and offering found among the Plains Nations. Each dancer gives their prayers for the people—through fasting, song, and sacred movement—while families, allies, and spiritual leaders hold the circle in love.

In this next step, the Rainbow Tribe walks in humility and service, not to host—but to listen, learn, and offer our prayers at the roots of this lineage. We go carrying not just material gifts—but gratitude, honor, and hope.

Ways You Can Help

Donate – No amount is too small. Every gallon of gas gets us one step closer to delivering hope.

Share – Let others know. Forward this to a friend, a community leader, a prayer group.

Pray – Light a candle, offer a song, or hold us in your heart during the Sundance (August 1–4). Your intention is powerful medicine.

Gratitude & Reciprocity

As Pastor Irene reminded us recently—“Build a bigger table, not a higher wall.” This is our chance to do just that. Thank you for being part of something ancient, beautiful, and still unfolding.

Together, we rise like the Rainbow after the storm.

Wopila tanka. Pilamaya. Thank you.
