It is 12 months ago today that we packed up the car and a big moving truck and headed up Great Eastern Highway to start our new life in Merredin. For us it has been a great 12 months. We have all learned a lot in the process, grown a lot and had lots of [...]

A friend of mine was over the other day and he commented on how you can feel God’s peace and presence in our home. This got me thinking about what we do that makes our house feel that way to people who come in to it.
