Lakota Prayer
Lakota Sioux Prayer read at Opening Luncheon
Oh, Great Spirit,
Whose voice I hear in the winds
and whose breath gives life to all the world.
Hear me! I need your strength and wisdom.
Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes
ever hold the red and purple sunset.
Make my hands respect the things you have made
and my ears sharp to hear your voice.
Make me wise so that I may understand
the things you have taught my people.
Let me learn the lessons you have hidden
in every leaf and rock.
Help me remain calm and strong in the
face of all that comes towards me.
Help me find compassion without
empathy overwhelming me.
I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother,
but to fight my greatest enemy: myself.
Make me always ready to come to you
with clean hands and straight eyes.
So when life fades, as the fading sunset,
my spirit may come to you without shame.
- Translated by Lakota Sioux Chief Yellow Lark in 1887

GFWC’s New Affiliate Organization: Alzheimer’s Association
On June 30, 2024, GFWC and the Alzheimer’s Association signed a partnership agreement live, during The Purple Gala: A Night of Hopes, Dreams, and Inspiration. The Alzheimer’s Association reports that approximately two-thirds of dementia caregivers are women. As a women’s organization, GFWC recognizes the impact that Alzheimer’s disease and dementia have on each of us and the overall impact they have on our communities.
GFWC supports:
- Education on recognition of cognitive decline and other forms of dementia;
- Funding for caregivers, respite care, and facilities that provide memory care;
- Legislation and research to improve treatments, access to treatment, prevention, and cures for all forms of dementia.
We are proud and excited to work with the Alzheimer’s Association to end Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. We will update you as new resources and events become available in the coming months.
