Leona is from the Alaskan village of Tatitlek on Prince William Sound. She grew up in a large family as one of ten children. At the age of 12, her father passed away. She and her brother took up fishing to help support the family. Then her mother sent her to school. It was there that she discovered that something was missing in her life.
About The Storyteller
The Storyteller is an audio collection of true life stories of First Nations people from across Native North America who are following Jesus Christ without reservation. Don’t be fooled, this is not some religious, feel good program. This is real life. It’s raw, direct and personal. Have you ever wondered if there really is hope for something better? We invite you to listen to Indigenous voices – Native American / First Nations Christians who understand. The Storyteller is broadcast weekly on radio to 600+ communities in Canada and the US and is available as a podcast.
