Lifelong public educators, their lives were changed when their daughter, son in-law, and only grandchildren left to serve as missionaries in a Muslim country "far far away." Through their experience, God gave them a passion to develop a support ministry for parents of missionaries.Whether your heart is hurting or rejoicing, this retreat is for YOU!Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
