Rev. Colin Douglas, pastor at Nixa Christian Church, traveled to North Dakota to participate in the protest at Standing Rock last fall. He says, "We were charged with standing against the Doctrine of Discovery, and doing so Prayerfully, Peacefully, Nonviolently, and Lawfully."

One focus during his time there was, "speakers who imparted on us the importance of what we were doing, what it meant as far as the legends of their people, and how important is was for people to learn to forgive one another, that while the world has a lot of hatred we need to learn to love."
