DEVASTATION HITS HAITI…
EARTHQUAKE
WE NEED YOUR HELP!

The National African Religion Congress is the certifying board of Priests and Priestesses of African-based religions. The National African Religion Congress wants to help. We need aid pledged to the Congress so that we can help make a difference for our sisters and brothers in Haiti. The news media report that 80% of the people of Haiti is Roman Catholic. That statistic, though widely available, is incorrect. That statistic would make people very comfortable contributing to agencies that work through the Catholic Church, causing them to believe that their contributions would reach the people at large. However, the National African Religion Congress knows that the practitioners of indigenous culture, especially Voodoo adherents, will be selectively neglected because of their religion.

Today our sister country Haiti is in trouble - hit by a devastating earthquake!  Haiti has played a key role in the spread of African-based religions in the Western hemisphere.  The people of Haiti fought for and gained their independence from colonial oppression through their spirituality, becoming the first free Black republic in the world.  The Voodoo religion has sustained the people through the worst of times.  Now the Haitian people desperately need the help of their brothers and sisters in faith to deal with this disaster. This unified body cares. 

The National African Religion Congress/NARC World International is an organization that has been established in order to foster unity among all African Religions of the Diaspora. These religions include the Akan, the Orisa Tradition of Trinidad and Tobago, Ifa, Santeria, Yoruba, Voodoo of Haiti, Candomble and Lucumi.  All of these religions have migrated to this country from countries such as: Nigeria, Brazil, Cuba, Haiti, and so on. All of them are represented in major communities in the United States. 

The National African Religion Congress/NARC World International has been in existence more than 10 years. We have solved many problems for the practice of African-based religions in the United States and other countries from where our great religions have migrated by bridging the gap of understanding in the communities.

Members of the Congress have valuable skills such as nursing, administering first aid, and experience in search and rescue. They are willing to submit to training from relief organizations to help deliver the support to those who need it. They are used to traveling among indigenous people in various third-world countries and are sensitive to the unique perspective of these people. They need financial help in order to make their skills and services available to reach those people.

Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol, Chairperson and Founder  

Welcome to Le Peristyle Haitian Sanctuary

Reading for the New Year 2010

On November 20, 2009, the Loa Baron Criminel declared that the year 2010 would be a shared year, governed by two Loas, Papa Ogu and Mali Louise.

 

Le Peristyle Haitian Sanctuary is the first Humofor, or church of the Voodoo religion, to acheive 501(c)(3) status and at the forefront among houses of African-based religion around the world.

Gro Mambo celebrates over 25 years of priesthood and 25 years as a High Priestess!

Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol, the founder of Le Peristyle Haitian Sanctuary, as well as the National African Religion Congress (NARC World International) went to Haiti in 1977 to study the Voodoo Religion. She went into Haiti with an introductory letter to an established priestess of the native religion. After some difficulties, Mambo Angela was able to establish a relationship with a priestess from whom she began to learn about Haitian Voodoo. She finally formed a relationship with Papa Hilaire Michel Novanyon Idizol, a high priest (Gro Hungan) and founder of Le Peristyle Sanctuary, in Haiti. Following years of study, she was initiated as a priestess (Mambo). Her mission was to bring back to the United States every component of the true African religion as it evolved from former slaves of the Congo, Dahomey, Togo and native Indians of the island of Haiti. During the 10 years of work, Mambo Angélá Noványón continued to study and advance in the religion. In 1984, her name was changed to Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol, when she achieved the sattus of high priestess.

The year 2009 is governed by a power called Papa Ogu, the force of faith and strength, and a power called Papa Dumbala, the force of peace. This power of strength could not have come to the forefront at a better time. As we walk into this year there will be many issues and concerns about finances, employment, and stability, and the people will sense a desperate need to know that things will get better. But let’s take a look at what this power governs. This force is fire and its power governs finances, judicial systems, business, and business planning along with faith and strength. The force of peace is needed where there is fire. This year will bring many fires in homes and businesses… fires that will burn physically and fires that will burn spiritually.

In her new DVD, Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol invites you to join her on an insightful journey through the year month by month. As she takes you through the year, you will gain understanding about how to work with the power of faith to your advantage and wisdom regarding how to use the force of peace to help put out the fires that burn in our everyday lives.

Sources of stress are everywhere. The power of doubt is prevalent. People everywhere are worried about the economy. But you can gain control of your own world mentally, physically, financially, and spiritually without being distracted by the problems of the world and avoid the monster doubt. Faith and strength is the way to bring unity, avoid stress, and achieve success. This DVD will reveal how you can do just that. In November, 2008 the force Baron Criminel revealed how to dispel doubt. Come with Gro Mambo Angélá Noványón Idizol on a journey through the year 2009 even though you have yet to live through the year. Now you can share in that knowledge and shape your own reality, create your own success, and become the master of your own happiness.

Thanks to all who came to celebrate life with us!

Guests came from all over the country to attend a two-day celebration in our Elevated Power at:
LePeristyle Haitian Sanctuary, 5629 North Warnock Street, Philadelphia, PA 19141
Friday, September 26, 2008, 8:00 PM and Saturday, September 27, 2008, 8:00 PM

If you celebrated in a special ceremony for Erusile Freeda the Loa of Love, Papa Loco the Loa of Peace and Papa Ogu the Loa of Strength and Faith then you know our napkins, matches and welcome notes were all dated September 26, 2008 when we were celebrating September 26, 2007.

We saw the error of the date and wondered why and how this error happened... Now we know why... 

All of our Shrines at our main Humofor at LePeristyle Haitian Sanctuary have been re-erected. They have new homes and a higher power for us to elevate our lives. More pictures of the new shrines coming soon to the Gallery page!
