Didean

"Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."

Hebrews 13:2 (ESV) 

Today marks a momentous day for me... I have bought a building to become our haven for travelers and at risk young adults... our "Didean" (Irish for safe haven or shelter).  

Robby just came in on a bus to serve as a the grounds keeper for Didean, and the Hurd family will be moving in July 4th weekend.  This is good, as work will only alow me to be at Didean on weekends and days off.  What joy is mine!  What blessings are ours!  Now we can aid other travellers on their journeys....

  Below are our plans for the house!

Chapel

The Chapel is made up of two large rooms operated by large Victorian double doors.  It is in this room most of the after-school activities and classes will take place as well as the weekly subculture worship service. 

The Parlor

The is set off just to the side of the Chapel and serves as a library, study, and tv room.  It is a place for hanging out together.  It is the gateway to the bathroom.  ^_~

Kitchen
The Kitchen in what was once the parlor room of Didean.  It is here that all the snacks and goodies for the gatherings are made.  It also serves as the staff dinning room.

Grounds Keepers Bedroom
The Grounds Keeper's Bedroom  sits in the back of Didean in the old kitchen.  It will be a dark, comforting room perfect for a nights rest, and set far apart from the traveller gal's room upstairs.  It also will be the and is the entrance to both the backyard/parking area and the basement. 
The Upstairs
The Upstairs will house my room (with extra bunks for other traveller gals), and the rooms for the host family, the Hurds.  It also has a half bath.

Warriors of The King

Fighting in the valley of the shadow of Death, many they have been wounded.  Many lay upon their mats, nigh to the pains of death.  High King to come, High King to heal...these His wounded ones.

We are His warriors, His stewards in the lands.  Guardians of the Truth, proclaimers of His ways.  We are the wounded warriors, healed by His hands.  We are those who ride through the lands, shrowed in the cover of darkness, proclaiming His kingdom to all who will listen.
 We are those who have tasted of Death and still ride.  We are those who have seen the Light of the King.  We are those who carry His banner before the watching world....Ride on, Ride strong, and may His Kingdom Come!

Journey to North Carolina

I was blessed to be one of the speakers at the Gathering this year (I taught on being servant/warriors for God), our first year in North Carolina.  From the time I got off the plane on Friday till I went home on Tuesday... I had never felt so much apart of a family. So much freedom, so much joy....trials come and go...but family remains. I was blessed to get to meet face to face: Donna and Mike, my mentor, Kathi, and friend Mo... Robby could not make it as he was visiting a friend in Texas.  I also meet new friends in Elphie, Steve "Racer", and Rev. Dave.

Every speaker had something to say that the Lord had lain on their hearts.  Worship was out of this world thanks  to Steve "Racer".  Our times of fellowship at The Well were priceless.

For me, just knowing that this is where I belong for sure...out here ministering in the shaddowlands and the open road...was the major key.  I have been out here, in ministry, for almost 5 years...but never till this week-end was I totally, unwaveringly sure...that I had not taken a wrong turn somewhere.  Now I know that this is really what God has lain on my heart..."God be Praised!!!"

Nightstar

I finally fixed my modem on my laptop...two years of pc repair training just paid off! I don't need a new laptop for traveling now.

True, "Nightstar", is still slow as everything...but she works now...and that is the key. I had gotten her working other than the modem about 6 months ago...but just had not had time to tare into her and fix the loss connections. Got that done...and she works again!

My Nightstar is BACK!!!  And just in time for my journey to Charlotte, North Carolina, too...

The Fire Grows

The fire is burning brighter....the embers are growing brighter.  Who knows how soon this will explode?

II Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

Free Sundays!

Ahhh...how sweet! Free Sundays for 6 weeks! Then back to ISoM in Newton...Still doing classes, just on Mon. and Thur. this time.   I do miss the open road, but not having classes for a while will be a nice brake...

I guess I will just relax, catch up on so reading and bicycling... and dream of the next long journey I set out on!

Still in the Red

My business is still in the red....but we just added historical clothing this week...with a lot more to come.  If all goes well, I will be on the road again soon.

I know a lot of people, or at least some...think that I spend no time in the word.  That traveling is all I think of and the likes.  I am very privet in many ways.  I don't tell nearly as much here as I use to...and I don't share a lot of my spiritual journey except with close, very close friends anymore.  Other than what needs to be known.  ^_^
