SHALOM – Our new home.

In 2001/2002, a friend, Peter prophesied over Philip saying that he will have his own front door. It seemed really odd to us then as we were not contemplating on buying a house. At that point in time, we had just purchased a small apartment which we had converted into a music studio.

We thanked our friend for his prayer over our lives & just left it at that. Then in 2005, while in Johannesburg, the Lord suddenly reminded me of His word. It really unsettled me as we were still not thinking about buying a house. We were still paying the loan for the music studio. I kept God’s reminder in my heart and …..was not sure what to make of the whole thing.

Sometime In Oct 2005, another friend Colin (who had no idea about the prophesy of our own front door) prayed for me and in not so many words confirmed that God was indeed serious about what He said. We began to accept that we need to pray about this matter seriously. The reality of the spoken word only came to pass in Oct 2009.

In our bid to purchase a house, we laid out numerous criteria and God in His graciousness answered them all…far above & beyond our imagination.

This old house which we purchased, is currently undergoing renovation works. Alex is designing the roofing for us. Philip & I worked on the designs poring thru many interior design magazines. Being such amateurs, we changed the designs countless of times & Alex came in with many good ideas as well.

Lately we have been busy choosing the tiles, sanitary wares & we have visited virtually all the furniture shops, lighting stores in the city. Every time I step out of the lighting store, I get a creak neck. OUCH!!!


This is exciting times for us. To receive such a tremendous support from our families & friends have added to the joy of it all.
