We’re Pamela & George
We met and married at a church in London. We continue to actively serve there and contribute to the efforts of this local church to win souls for the Lord.
I (Pamela) am in the construction industry and I worked in the city for many years. At the end of 2021, I resigned from a stressful post to focus on nesting, growing a family and gradually setting up as a sole practitioner.
George works in the education sector and thoroughly enjoys engaging and equipping young minds with the tools they need to be successful.
Sojourner Stays is an idea we birthed after a difficult experience this year. It caused us to pause completely; to reflect and to pray much. We came to truly understand how fragile life is and how much we aught to be thankful for the many good things the Lord gifts to us on a daily basis. We need solitude to pray, to seek Him and to take in His Word. We need time away from the grind, to be set apart from the business of the world and to escape to the serenity of nature.
We felt an off-grid prayer cabin just outside South London would offer a simple opportunity for us to go into the outdoors to replenish our depleted souls and enjoy intimate fellowship with the Lord. Our aim is to extend this facility to other Believers - travelling on their own or as a couple - to stay and be inspired in the beauty of His creation.
So here we are… with the seed of an idea. We are at the beginning of our journey and on the hunt for the right site to allow us to host such a facility where others too can retreat, relax, and restore. We are trusting the Lord for an answer to this most significant prayer; without His blessing, we cannot progress.
There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.
Proverbs 19:21
