Andy and Melody

Andrew Nygaard visiting Wellpinit.

Andy Nygaard recently re-appeared in my life after more than 7 years. Back in the day, he was a high school student in the Spokane Second Ward of the LDS Church, and I was the seminary teacher. Our paths crossed again when he asked one of our tribal offices to pass a message along to me.

It's been fun to get re-acquainted, and to meet a new friend.

The three of us went to a sweat last night on the Spokane Reservation. It was absolutely amazing; perhaps one of the most intense spiritual experiences of the last 10 years. They each arrived at a place where they want to make some important changes in life. I sincerely hope we will continue this journey together.
