Our First Donation

The first donation to the Sand Creek Massacre NHS was authorized by the United Methodist Church General Conference in 2008, and received by NPS in 2011. In 2012, the UMC General Conference engaged in the Act of Repentance to Indigenous People and introduced legislation to continue the process of healing relationships between the church and Native people. The Act of Repentance included an apology for the Sand Creek Massacre, which was considered a microcosm of the church's history of treatment of Native people globally, especially since Col. Chivington was a Methodist minister. During the 150th anniversary of the massacre, the Rocky Mountain Conference of the UMC brought its pilgrimage of over 700 people to Sand Creek.
