One of our guest’s wrote: “Yes, many of my questions were answered in the chapel on the subject of Joe’s talks.” Andrew was assisting with this program and opened each session with some thoughts on the “Armour of God”, another practical application when we are faced with these wars of depression, anxiety, doubts, old age and suffering in sickness.

Andrew’s sister Pat had decided to visit him at Carmel this week with her new husband Colin Sylvester, and happily agreed to lead the sung worship times on the piano.

One of the highlights of the week was a visit from George artist, Tony Noble, who shared a powerful message of God’s moulding and refining work in our lives through the medium of a pottery demonstration.

Another lovely comment from a guest: “A wonderful assurance that God is with me in all that I do for him and a keen awareness that with the Holy Spirit within, there is still much, despite my age and widowhood, that I can do. Praise the Lord!”

The weather was almost perfect with only a little mist to bother us at times. Great delight was expressed by many in the varied program organized throughout the week: a steep walk for the energetic followed by a picnic tea on “Wolf Island”, the hill opposite Carmel overlooking the beautiful Wilderness coastline; a scrumptious tea at a restaurant on the Wilderness coast with an amble at the water’s edge to lose the calories gained; a superb banquet served by Lynnie and her team to the sound of the waves at Victoria Bay beach; a walk in the gardens with Barbara and finally an enjoyable workshop which culminated in the evening with the sound of battles cries and songs and colourful banners held aloft.  A time of sharing and ministry of prayer, a final summary by Andrew on the Armour of God and sharing together in an informal communion , remembering all that God has done for us, brought the event to a beautiful close.

Carmel has planned this special ladies programme to be full of surprises that will encourage and spoil you over these few days. So allow yourself to spend a life changing weekend with the King, strengthened for life storms and enabled to live life loved and inspired.

The Carmel Easter Experience was yet again a hit with our guests. The two week long experience was full of fun activities led by Eddie and Carin De Jager and their team of young ministry workders for kids. Sand Castle building on Victoria Bay Beach, Kite building and many other activies filled the days for the kids. Parents and adults spend their days relaxing by the pool or enjoying some of the great food and coffee’s available at “Coffee @ Kaye’s” – Carmel’s latest addition to it ever expanding family friendly facilities.
