Since 1927, St. Joseph’s Indian School has been working with the youngest Native American victims to bring them loving care, a well-rounded education and the hope they need to break free from the misery surrounding them.
Some of the American Indian children at St. Joseph's Indian School.
- Only 13% of our students live with both biological parents
- Less than 50% of the children live with a biological parent
- More than 50% of our students have been exposed to drug or alcohol abuse
- Nearly 52% of the Native American children have been exposed to domestic violence

Ask for prayers for Aaron And Aylssa Box’s Grandpapa Harry who is very sick and he misses the kids very much. I will pray everyday God will take his pain away. Prayer will take the pain away.

Went to our local pow wow a week ago Sunday- my son did some dancing & played his flute; he sold a few of his CD’s so that most of the monet would go to St. Joseph’s & St. Labre. I would dearly love to be able to come to St. Joseph’s to see ” my ” kids dance in their pow wow, but am not physically able to do so because of my breathing problems- however, I will be there ” in Spirit ” ! Hugs and kisses to all my beautiful kids & much love! Granny Joyce Buchman

Dear father steve, I recived a dream catcher the other day, and the Lord touched my heart to do some thing for at least the small kids. I make angles,out of yarn and I would love to send the kids one. Could you tell me how many there are? Would it be alright with you? It’s a small gift with a Bible verse. You and the kids are in my prayers, God Bless and keep you all. Love in Christ, Linda Grant
