Welcome to PULL TOGETHER NOW (PTN), a global family who accepts our sacred responsibility to care for peace, children, family, community, and Mother Earth before all else.
We hold the long-view and strive to be the “Good Ancestors” our sacred children and future generations of Life need us to be. We are returning to our ancestral roots ─ re-membering, renewing, and protecting our sacred connection and relationship with each other and our Mother, Earth.

Good Ancestors are transcending cultural, social, political, geographical, and other imaginary boundaries for the peaceful, healthy, equitable world we know is possible, and The Future deserves.

PTN creates Gratitude Gatherings to honor and strengthen what holds us together where we live, work, play, and pray! We’re getting to know each other by celebrating the beauty within and around us. We’re sharing stories and songs - ancient and new, ceremonies, living knowledge and know-how, the arts, and Creator’s real food from the sacred HomeWater and HomeLand that we belong to, protect, and love.
Our collaborations honor, connect, and lift up Good Ancestors. We’re pulling together in ways that broaden our horizons, seed trust, strengthen community, and catalyze action for the common good ─ face-to-face and place-to-face. With humility, gratitude, patience, tolerance, compassion, and creativity, we leave no one, no place, out or behind.

The Path We Walk begins inside each of us with this fundamental question:
How are we caring for peace, ourselves, and the enduring well-being of our children, their children’s children, families, communities, sacred Water, Land, Fire, Air, and generations of other living beings?

PTN invites you, your family, and friends to join an ancient tradition with no end:

The Ancestors’ Relay >
Caring for peace, children, family, community,
and Mother Earth before all else!

We’re carrying our sacred Ancestors’ Message Sticks across HomeLands and Oceans, honoring, defending, and relaying what matters most ─ living with a sacred regard for the Web of Life:

> care for children, families, ourselves, and the communities of Life we belong to. Nurture and root children with love to be strong spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. Re-member who we are and where we come from. Live with humility, gratitude, tolerance, and compassion; strive for everyone to have meaningful lives with dignity and enough.
>respect, protect, and fairly share Creator’s gifts: sacred Water, Air, Land, Fire, Seeds, Food, Medicines, ─ all forms of Life.
> honor, protect, and work with Indigenous Peoples and others with the relationship to sacred Water and Land to care for all people and Mother Earth. Help people who provide us with nourishing real food. Preserve, share, and apply living knowledge and know-how ─ ancient and new ─ required to be secure and flourish together in balance with the Circle of Life.
> transcend imaginary barriers to free the world from systems of domination and greed driving perpetual war, genocide, ecocide, and “artificial intelligence”. Unmask and reject cowardly predators vying for power over everyone and every place, intent on commodifying every expression of Life by any means.

Carry one, give some! Please share The Ancestors’ Message Stick, a symbol of love and solidarity with other Good Ancestors. It carries promises, information and knowledge of critical importance to all people, and songs, stories, prayers, art, dreams,seeds, gifts, invitations… It represents humankind’s living memory from the 4-Directions with wisdom, experience, keen observation, and spiritual insights gained over long periods of time. The color purple reflects the blending of beauty and goodness in and around us that serves the well-being of all people and Mother Earth. We are filled with the power of survivors, ancestors who made our lives possible and whose love, sacrifice, creativity, and dreams we carry. Good Ancestors look back and forward across generations for Life-affirming guidance, inclusive of all Peoples without preference for any cultures, nationalities, spiritual traditions, status, age groups, or place on Earth. We honor the protocols of reciprocal relationship rooted in Natural Law, not the hierarchical law of man that perpetuates domination and destruction of Life.

Good Ancestors do not look away.
We have witnessed and experienced atrocities and remember and tell it like it was, and is. We prioritize strengthening relationships by listening to each other, and respecting and working with land-based knowledge holders across the HomeLands and HomeWater we belong to, protect, and love. We are re-membering how to care for peace and place, ourselves, and one another, now, and forever.
