WHERE DID MY DAD & MOM GO...



Barnabas spent 10 days with friends (Thanks Steve, Lynn and family!) while Nathan and I spent 21 hours (on a bus) each way to get to Hluhluwe KZN South Africa for a week with Pieter and Elize Van Deventer to 'restore the foundations' of our lives at their "Healing House".




"Restoring The Foundations" ministry experience examines four problem areas that we all experience. Going through the ministry experience, God revealed patterns and 'cause and effect' relationships, with the buttons that we pushed as we related to each other. Issues were uncovered that shed light on, and helped us make sense of our relationship challenges. While the approach is systematic and thorough, God is tender and loving in revealing and healing our hurt. Foundational truths were applied to each problem area and system- atically addressed the spiritual root causes as God graciously prepared our hearts and minds to receive his love. Godly beliefs were formed to replace the ungodly beliefs as our true identity in Christ was revealed.

Our deepest gratitude goes to the leadership of our church, who provided this week of inner healing and restoration. We believe the Lord will bless you for sending us for this ministry! THANK YOU!!!

One of the unexpected blessings was a trip in our time off to the Hluhluwe Game Reserve... to relax and enjoy God's creation!















God's grand finale was the blessing of watching the first 10 of a herd of 50 elephants cross the road right in front of us!



Stopping off for an extra night in Durban, a visit to the U-shaka Sea World provided Nathan with the opportunity to flirt with a grouper before traveling home to Barnabas!
