Derek spent nearly 3 hours today helping to locate a safe place for a woman in our community who has just walked away from an abusive husband. While at the Lighthouse Shelter 6 years ago we knew well the reality that such a place does not exist in our city and in the past we've been able to refer women to some amazing places in nearby cities. But today, the burden fell pretty hard on Derek that Rustenburg has nothing to offer women in crisis who need a place to stay. I don't know if God will lead us, our church, or our YWAM family down a road of preparing such a place, maybe He is calling us to pray about it but Derek knows he can't walk away from his experience today and simply do nothing.
Please join us in prayer as we seek God's will for our city what His Kingdom on earth really looks like.

I cried when I read this today. Praying God will stir up this need in a heart that chases after Him.
