Installation of Rev. Dr. Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at Navajo Lutheran Mission
ELCA Grand Canyon Bishop Steve Talmage calls for humble approach in working with tribe

Bishop Talmage acknowledges God was at work with Navajo long before missionaries arrived

(Rock Point, Arizona) – The fourth video on the Installation of Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard and Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (NELM) in Rock Point, Arizona by Bishop Steve Talmage of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) Grand Canyon Synod.

Bishop Talmage installed the Hubbards on Sun., June 7, 2009.

In this video, Bishop Steve Talmage talks Navajo medical milestones like Dr. Lori Arviso Alvord, who in 1994 was the first Navajo woman to be board certified in surgery. (See photo collage below)

I believe there is a need to maintain Jesus’s spirit of humility in seeking to discover the bridges that can be made and even crossed between the cultures and histories that exist in this place, Bishop Talmage told those gathered for the Installation Service.

In our less than perfect history of over 50 years of ministry at Rock Point, those who have come from the outside have struggled to be humble, patient and willing to recognize the need to discover how God has already been at work among the people here, Bishop Talmage said.

Love the stranger, love the neighbor and a friend with an open heart – with the open heart that Jesus has for all of God’s children,” said Bishop Talmage of the effect of the mission and school on those who do not know Jesus.

Bishop Talmage’s message of humility and realization that God has long been a part of the Navajo culture even before missionaries resonates with Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who became executive director of the Navajo Lutheran Mission in the spring of 2009 and has a been an outspoken advocate for Christian respect for the American Indian culture and traditions.

While still following the original goals of the mission, Rev. Hubbard is taking a respectful and humble approach to the mission’s work in the Navajo community.

He believes the purpose of the mission is to minister with the Navajo not for the Navajo.

With the century-long horrors of the Christian boarding lasting to mid 1900s still fresh in elders’ minds, Hubbard believes we need to practice healing and reconciliation, not judge people whose path to the divine life might be different than ours.

Rev. Dr. Lynn Hubbard, who sings and plays guitar, is planning a series of concerts starting in the fall of 2009 at churches and other venues in Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, California.

The free fundraising concerts are to raise awareness about mission projects and the new Mission in Reverse model that the mission is operating under since he arrived in the Spring of 2009.

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:

I hold this ancient instrument to my heart

And bless it with love.

I ask that my breath flow with ease

As my fingers dance to the rhythm

Of the ancient spirits joy.

May the music coming from this ancient instrument

Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,

Comfort and sooth troubled souls

And bring joy to the lives it touches.

Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,

In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Flute Blessing by Carol Buckley, June 2000:

I hold this ancient instrument to my heart

And bless it with love.

I ask that my breath flow with ease

As my fingers dance to the rhythm

Of the ancient spirits joy.

May the music coming from this ancient instrument

Flow from my heart to heal wounded spirits,

Comfort and sooth troubled souls

And bring joy to the lives it touches.

Allow me to play in the peacefulness of the moment,

In the joy of celebration, and in the sacredness of living.

Travis Terry is a native Flutist of the Pima Nation who is born of the indigenous Gila River Pima Nation in Sacaton, Arizona.

On his myspace page, Native flutist Travis Terry says:

“I grew up surrounded by ethnic music and instruments of long ago, including the Native flute,” Terry said. “As a child I had natural appreciation for music, which contributed to me becoming a self-taught flutist in my adult years. My military service has sent me around the world exposing me to the musical traditions of various cultures.”
“Ethnic music was a continual interest and drew me closer to this dream of creating music. I have always been grateful to my parents (Irving and Caroline) for supporting my dreams and at the same time continually teaching me and my sisters (Denise and Dawn) the indigenous Pima culture, traditions and language. These values have aided me in blending contemporary culture with this heritage of the ‘Desert People.’ This conscious blending of cultures is very much reflected in my musical compositions and playing style.”
“After my military service, I visited Canyon De Chelly where my good fortune led me to meet my lovely wife Cara and settle in Chinle, AZ. Cara and her family taught me the ways and language of the Dine (Navajo) people.”

Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ: 2009 livestock vaccinations at the Navajo Nation reservation by missionaries from the Lutheran Church of the Cross in Sacramento, CA
Church of the Cross Sacramento, CA did livestock vaccinations for Navajo residents around Navajo Lutheran Mission

During July 2009, volunteers from the Lutheran Church of the Cross in Sacramento, CA visited the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ to assist the Navajo people with the health of their livestock.

Despite the extreme summer heat and the remote Navajo homes, church members helped deworm and vaccinate 500 sheep and goats plus 200 horses.

The volunteers from the Lutheran Church of the Cross paid for the expense of vaccinating over 700 livestock.

The vaccination program badly needs funding and anyone wish to help should contact the Navajo Lutheran Mission (see contact info below).

The group also did building repairs and rehab around the mission. On their off time, the group ventured to some of the area’s most beautiful rock formations and sites. (See photo collages at end of this post).

The Navajo Lutheran Mission extends special thanks to Arizona Navajo musician Anthony Maloney, who music is featured in this video and will be used in upcoming videos (scroll down for more info and links about Anthony Maloney).

Songs by Maloney included in this video are “Our Warriors” and “A Better Life.”

In recent years, the Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church in Bellbrook, Ohio sent four shipments of clothing and supplies to the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ, and to the Hopi Reservation, Second Mesa, AZ.

“We traveled to Rock Point and had the privilege of attending worship and spending a day at the school with the children,” said Carla Becker, wife of Pastor Steve Becker adding the group sent clothing and other items to the NELM in 2004 and 2006.

“The Sunday we were (at the Navajo Lutheran Mission), we rode in the van with Bobby Yazzi as he picked up people for church,” she said “It was a wonderful experience, and I purchased a Navajo weaving from his aunt, Lolita Begay, which I treasure.”

A 30-minute video on the 2007 Christmas Pageant at the Navajo Evangelical Lutheran Mission (NELM) in Rock Point, Arizona.

The pageant takes place in the NELM House of Prayer and includes portions in Navajo and English.

In April 2009, Rev. Dr.Lynn Hubbard was appointed executive director of the Navajo Lutheran Mission.

He discovered several videos like this one that had not been put online for the public to see.

Rev. Hubbard is producing current videos but feels it is important to share these previously produced videos with the public.

Founded in September 1953, the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, Arizona (Tsé Nitsaa Deezáhí) is located in the heart of the Navajo Nation (Diné Bikéyah).

Rev. Deborah Haffner Hubbard is a Presbyterian pastor was named the pastor of the Lutheran Mission House of Prayer.

Youth from churches in Hubbard, Ohio attending a Vacation Bible School helped the Navajo Lutheran Mission in Rock Point, AZ and children at the new Akron Children’s Hospital of the Mahoning Valley, according to a news story in the Warren, Ohio Tribune Chronicle.

Approximately 120 students and more than 50 volunteers, made up of both adults and teens, met the challenge and went beyond anyone’s wildest expectations.

Hubbard children attending VBS also raised $300 in offerings to support the work at the Navajo Lutheran Mission School in Rock Point, Ariz. where Navajo children go to learn the three R’s in a religious setting, but also are given the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Navajo culture.

Sponsoring churches include Central Christian Church, First Baptist Church, First Methodist Church, First Presbyterian Church, Grace Lutheran Church, and St. Patrick’s Church of Hubbard.
