We were driving around the reservation and came across this church "Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church. Our Branch President was actually married here with his present wife. It is a small church. Notice the flowers at the side of the church. People come here with flowers to give to Mary when they pray. Also notice the little crosses and signs of the cross that are placed in the church walls People put messages in there and use these symbols to pray with.
Then while driving around we were stopped by the POLICE!!!! This is the second time he has stopped us and asked us what we were doing on the reservation. Of course, we told him we were clergy and here on a mission. He said he didn't get into that kind of stuff and said we shouldn't be out here unescorted. He asked us if we had a letter from a Native American saying we were invited to be here. Of course, we said no. Then he reinforced that we were not Native American and we should hit the road!!!!!! And stay on Highway US 70.
Well, if that is the case, we might as well not be here because I don't know of anyone who would just invite us. So we went home and called President Morgan. He just laughed and said he would write us a letter stating we were here sharing the gospel on the reservation. Now, of course, I am nervous everytime we leave US 70.
