Missionaries perform conversion of Native Americans People are gathered and their all facing a lake. Men are paddling toward the people in a very long canoe. Nuns, priest, and Native Americans. Many of the Native Americans wear traditional regalia & perform a traditional dance. Young Native American girls receive communion.
