CROW AGENCY, Mont.—On any given Sunday morning on the Crow Reservation, you can find Crows worshipping in a variety of ways.

At St. Dennis Catholic Church, one of the oldest churches in Crow Agency, members gather for Mass, singing hymns in both English and Crow.

Photos and audio in the slideshow were taken at one Mass at St. Dennis. The audio slideshow was originally published by CrowNews.Net and is used with permission.
