With vital importance of traditional blessing ceremonies to the strength and well-being of the Mescalero Apache people, the Tribal Council will sponsor a blessing feast held at one of our four sacred mountains.
´Dził gais ´ání, (Sierra Blanca), holds significance to our Mescalero Apache people because it is sacred and represents one of the four directions which marks our homelands.
The four year journey began in 2017 at Guadalupe Peak and continued in 2018 at Tres Hermanas Mountain and onto 2019 at Oscura Mountain Peak. Sierra Blanca is the final blessing feast hosted at one of the four sacred mountains.
See you at the feast!
