OPINIONS ᏃᎵᏍᎬᎢ
SPEAKING OF FAITH: Each person has a purpose…
When God got hold of Paul, everything changed and turned around. Pastor Tim said, “I don’t want to hear from anyone, ‘I’ve gone too far.’ ‘I’ve seen too much.’ ‘I’ve been into too much,’ and ‘Pastor, you don’t know what I’ve done.’
COMMENTARY: The community wants your best.
At our next tribal election, you will be making a decision that will affect how we are governed. You might say that we do that every election and to a certain extent, you would be right. Deciding who will sit in the seats of power is a decision that has lasting impact on our community.
COMMENTARY: What’s in a name? We should be the Eastern Cherokee Nation
Allow me to propose an idea…I’ve thought a lot about the history of our Tribe and our joint history with the other two Cherokee Tribes and feel like the name that we ultimately adopted (Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians) is not truly who we are.
