I am married to Roland for the past 30 years and we have three adult children. René, married to Herman, Corné and Debbi. My ministry started 20 years ago from my home, counseling people (for hours on end!). I never attended any formal Bible-School training and it was amazing to have the Lord “enroll” me at His University and be trained by those He chose as instruments in His Hands specifically for me! As the Lord developed and trained me, the ministry started to grow and I was asked to teach and train what I had learned. There are so many teachers in my life that I need to give credit to, so many that never even knew I existed, BUT GOD DID! I started putting together notes – bits and pieces from all over – added my own experiences – and then a basic Soul Care School developed. Then followed a course on Inner Healing – again notes from all over – tapes I had listened to and books I had read. The need to train counselors arose, and so another course was developed: The Practical Application of Soul Care. I had attended a training school by John and Paula Sandford after reading all their books. They have greatly impacted my life. It is such a blessings to see how their children are developing and growing under the double-portion anointing. The other very anointed teacher in my life was Derek Prince – I learned so much from him and always felt safe as he broke the Word with such clarity and wisdom. Fiona Desfontein also started me on the road of understanding so many things in my own life – where things went wrong and I sat listening to her tapes for hours. I learned so much from Dr. Rebecca Brown and I think she is a very brave lady in doing what she did (and is still doing). It cost her tremendous persecution and much of what we know today concerning the occult is because she was prepared to pay the price of laying down her life for the sake of the Kingdom. I recommend all her books. Selwyn Hughes (“Living with Jesus Everyday”) has also impacted my life with his very specific, unique approach to counseling. 3 By God’s Grace and unmerited favour, He has so developed the ministry and call on my life from starting as a house-wife / Secondary-School teacher with a BSc Degree, now being able to minister in many places in South Africa as well as Germany, Austria, Portugal, and recently in Taiwan. From the beginning, I have never had copyright on my notes / books, etc, as I clearly heard the Lord on this one. It comes from God anyway – He chooses the person as an instrument, but that is all we are. All giftings / revelations come from Him anyway. I would only cover my cost and the books printed were at low-cost as possible seeing I live in South-Africa and the Rand is not very strong. I have focused on the under- privileged, the poor, the prisons, the broken. I sow many books into these areas, as well as into Africa. Somebody approached me and offered me a website free of charge. So now anyone can download whatever they would choose – all free of charge. A pastor has also had all the courses accredited at an international University and these credits can go towards a Degree Course. With all this background, I need to make sure that I give credit where credit is due. I cannot state sentence of paragraph as to where I got what. In those many years ago, I would just write as the Lord would teach me. Never could I have imagined that this is where the ministry would stand today. I can basically name the books on my shelve and the authors just to say a BIG THANK YOU that you were obedient to the call of God on your life, for the cost of remaining faithful to the call, for the cost of the families involved in allowing you to be used by the Lord. May God richly reward each and everyone of you as I was one of the many allowed to partake in the fruit of your labour. I salute and honour you all as a co-labourer of Jesus Christ. I pray that you will continue to enrich the Body of Christ with your gifts and that you will run the full race until the time of His coming! Resources: 1.
