“The Doctrine of Discovery (Domination)” by Steven T. Newcomb

Join us for a powerful service featuring Native scholar and author Steven T. Newcomb, co-founder of the Indigenous Law Institute and author of Pagans in the Promised Land. Newcomb will speak on what he calls the “Doctrine of Domination”—a system of oppression rooted in 15th-century church decrees that continues to shape legal and political realities for Indigenous Peoples today.

The service will be enriched with music by Woo Du-An, joined by Micha Schoepe and Paul Dankers, with Rita Marsh serving as Worship Associate. Together, we will reflect on the legacy of these teachings, honor Indigenous Peoples Day, and explore pathways of justice and healing.

All are welcome to this meaningful morning of truth-telling, music, and community.
