Hanneke and I have friends somewhere in a not so obvious country in Asia. We became friends this year after a digital meeting with YWAM Family Ministries. We were linked together to pray for each other. We started talking and discovered that they run a Restoration House for couples in their country. They do this together with another couple. They invite couples to stay in this house for a week. During that week they guide these couples with education and counseling through their marital problems. Fantastic and so necessary! Hanneke and I would also like to eventually start a restoration house in Aruba and so we took the opportunity to learn from these friends how they approach everything. What they do is very inspiring, but also dangerous. What they are doing is not allowed in that country and the government actively intervenes when they discover that this is happening. Our friends constantly live with the risk of being arrested. Yet they continue. What heroes of faith!
Because not everyone has the opportunity to come their way, our friends also travel across the country to “inaccessible” places. Until recently, they used their own car for this purpose. A month ago, while traveling back from one of the meetings where they had spoken, they had a serious car accident along the way. And so it could happen that they were prayed for from all over the world through their contacts at YWAM Family Ministries.
Fortunately, they are doing well physically. They still need some processing time, and of course another car, but they are in good spirits and grateful that God has spared them. Will you pray that they can continue their mission in good health?
