Welcome!

This is the “official” Standing Rock blog for the Roanoke Valley Baptist Association’s relationship with the Lakota Sioux at the Standing Rock Reservation in North and South Dakota.

As teams from across Virginia and the Roanoke Valley gear up to head out to the Dakotas in the next couple of weeks, this site will be routinely updated with pictures, videos, and accounts of all that’s going on.

On the right side, links to other blogs are featured. Additionally, the latest news about Standing Rock from media sources are posted to help give an idea of what’s going on. Currently increased suicides and a lack of law enforcement officers are making the news.

Please pray for those serving and being served on the reservation. Pray for safe travels, new relationships, and existing relationships strengthened. Please pray that the love of Christ will be evident and shared with the Native Americans.

Stay tuned for more updates!
