The Northwest Peoples spiritual practice called SiSiWiss (pronounced See See Wiss), translated into English means sacred breath, or sacred life. The SiSiWiss spiritual practice originates from the San Juan Islands and spread as a spiritual practice all through western Washington down to Siletz, Oregon. SiSiWiss traditions also spread to many of the Gulf Islands, including Vancouver Island and much of the NW coastal areas of B.C. The practice of SiSiWiss is understood as a medicine way or path, medicine meaning healing path.SiSwinKlae as our guest worship presenter on the first Sunday in November, will offer the morning Reflection, share drumming, music, prayer, song, stories, and teachings. SiSwinKlae will be joined by members of her SiSiWiss Women’s Medicine Circle. This Open Medicine Circle and all are welcome!
