The Gates of Whiteclay Documentary
Join us for a powerful screening of the documentary, The Gates of Whiteclay.
For more than 115 years, the tiny town of Whiteclay, Nebraska, was a place of profound suffering—a "poison spigot" purpose-built to supply alcohol to the adjacent Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. With the nation's highest per capita alcohol sales, its devastating impact led to violence, trauma, and a life expectancy for the Lakota Sioux that was second-lowest in the western hemisphere.
But in the face of a century of injustice ignored by lawmakers and law enforcement, two women, Norma Blacksmith and Marsha BonFleur, decided it was time to speak to God. Through relentless prayer walks and cries for justice, they stood in the gap, believing for transformation.
The Gates of Whiteclay is the incredible true story of their faith and God's remarkable answer. Witness how persistent prayer dismantled a stronghold of darkness and brought about a miraculous and joyous victory that made national news. This film is a powerful reminder that the word “impossible” only makes God smile.
Don't miss this opportunity to see a modern-day testament to the power of faith in action.
