The Land

by rich on April 25, 2009

So we want to build a place of retreat. What does that mean and how will it happen?

What does it mean?

We do hope at some point to build a place for folks to come and stay and rest. Right now we believe building a garden for people to come and just find rest is most important. We’re particularly keen to serve young people. It feels like young people lives are constantly filled with activity and to be able to allow them a chance to stop and contemplate is important, to meet with God.

How will it happen

Well we need to buy the land and that is the first step. We would like to buy a piece of land near Lostwithiel. It is currently being sold for £110,000 which is a lot of money! We are seeking God and hoping He will provide. It is 6 acres and has a tumbled down building on it. We might be able to build at some point in the future but to get started, to get building would be so exciting.

It looks like a very good project. If you do get the funds together to buy the site I would be interested in helping with Gardening and building on a voluntary basis.
