We went to Pine Ridge Reservation in southwestern South Dakota(see map).  This reservation, home to the Oglala Lakota Sioux tribe, is one of the poorest communities in America. Its history includes the Battle of Little Big Horn and the massacre at Wounded Knee. Ministry at this site focuses on children and home improvement.
