WPPD 2026

Hau Mitakuyapi,

We come together to pray for Mother Earth. We are praying for mankind to recognize that Mother Earth is the source of life, not a resource. We are coming into a time when many prophecies are beginning to unfold. As ‘Ikce Wicasa’ we stand by and recognize the message of the White Buffalo Calf Woman. When she came, she called us the Buffalo Nation. Then foretold that the next time she appears on Earth she will come to stand upon Mother Earth during a time when the Earth will be sick and have a fever. The White Buffalo Calf Woman foretold when this time comes she will appear as a white buffalo calf with black nose, black eyes, and black hooves.

She also told that there will be many other animals born white. In 1994 in Janesville, Wisconsin the first white buffalo calf was born. Since that day many more white animals have been born. This signifies a great urgency for all nations to come together. It was foretold that it will only be through prayer with all nations unified that a change will come for Mother Earth. It’s because of this urgency that we must act now from our spiritual ceremonies, calling out for all nations to come together with us, to help make a change for future generations. It is only through Unification and Prayer that we can help.

These are the crossroads: either we’re faced with global disasters, earth and climate changes, different sicknesses causing tears from our relatives eyes, or we can unite spiritually, globally - All Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer.

In a sacred hoop of life, where there is no ending and no beginning…
