November Testimony

“Thank you for making it possible for us to attend the November Broom Tree retreat at the Shack in Michigan. We had no idea what to expect, and were a bit anxious upon arriving. However, we were immediately put at ease.

The week was incredible. Wow!

When family and folks from the church ask what we did while we were gone we tell them:

We slept - watched the retreat videos - slept - listened to the retreat CD’s - slept - went for walks - slept - talked - slept - prayed - slept - did some serious reading - slept - listened to the quiet - slept - enjoyed banana splits - slept. Their curious looks turn into smiles. We smile too.

Friends, we knew we were tired, but did not realize just how bone weary we were. Broom Tree Ministries now carries a special place in our hearts.

There is no way the two of us could have afforded the cost of such a week, or planned and organized everything as wonderfully AS the staff and volunteers of Broom Tree did. Our weary souls were allowed to enter ‘His dwelling place’. What a restful and refreshing experience it was.

Our marriage and ministry are stronger because of your love and sacrifice. Thank you, thank you, so much for everything!

In deep and loving appreciation,

Tim & Jennifer Rohrbacher, Columbus, Ohio
