Reverence means to regard or treat one another with deep respect. We look to our relationship with nature to help us understand this feeling. We treat earth with dignity and reverence. This also means all our relationships and partnerships should understand and act toward this way of being with nature and one another. We move forward in partnership with others with the understanding that knowledges, languages, and cultures stem from the earth, and are sacred. Spiritual connections guide our relationships and journeys. We hold the relationships up and ask all involved to respect that which comes when you enter deeper conversations and accept the work that we embark upon. We are stewards of the earth, water, and sky. This work deepens our connection and understanding to the world around us. We gather in conversation as Indigenous people, language speakers and learners, established and emerging language scholars and educators, mentors, and mentees, and non-Indigenous people, researchers, educators, and graduate students to be show and hold reverence for the work being done.
