As part of our time at St. Christopher’s Mission, we were invited to celebrate with Kathy Plummer, retired minister and longtime resident of St. Christopher’s Mission, at a key moment in her house build “across the river” in the Navajo Reservation. She has waited decades to be able to build a home on the ancestral grazing land of her clan, and with the invaluable help of the mission’s current vicar, Joe Hubbard, is finally seeing it happen. The architecture graduate students @designbuildbluff, who designed the house and are building it by hand, made a presentation about their process, and we got to hear from Kathy and her family about the importance of this event and the stories associated with the land. Honored to have been part of it.
