Oglala Sioux Tribe Temporarily Suspends All Christian Missionary Work.

In an emergency meeting Tuesday July 26, the Oglala Sioux Tribal (OST) Council temporarily suspended all activity of Christian missions on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.

The OST passed an ordinance requiring all churches and religious organizations to complete a new form to request the right to conduct missionary work on the reservation.

The OST also called for an independent investigation of the Dream Center Missionary, to be conducted by a member of the tribe’s administration, Justin Pourier.

The tribe wants to know how much the organization is earning in donations, where the funds come from, and how the funds are spent.

It’s not the first time Jesus is King Mission distributed pamphlets that the Oglala Sioux Tribe says spreads hate.

Therefore, it being ordained that the Oglala Sioux Tribal Council does hereby approve the registration and request for authorization to conduct missionary activities form. »
