Open Medicine Circle will be held on the last Wednesday evening of each month. We meet in-person in the Fellowship Hall (basement areas of the Interfaith Community Sanctuary (ICS) building) for the circle.
All men, women, youth and children are welcome.
This medicine circle includes prayers, drum/music, song, stories and more. We will have a potluck meal. If your way is open, please bring a prepared or nearly prepared dish to share.

This is a clean and sober gathering
The NW First 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.
