Arapohue Healing & Recovery Centre

where miracles happen every day

Dear friends,

The year is coming to a close and the men are celebrating rebuilding strength in their bodies (Tinana), souls (Hinengaro) and spirits (Wairua). The power of having someone walking alongside them in daily mentorship, fellowship and prayer coupled with holistic living bears solid results. This month the men have worked through the Elijah House Identity & Destiny 10-part series which they've found very worthwhile. The combined power of identity, purpose and deep inner healing.

We've changed our name back to Arapohue Healing & Recovery Centre which more clearly defines what we do. A sincere thank you to all who have partnered with Arapohue H&R this year, rescuing precious people from dysfunctional lifestyles and restoring families. We simply couldn't do it without you. Most of all, thanks to God for the vision and provision - and daily strength and grace.

Merry Christmas,
Ray, Jan and the A-team

Hoyle Lodge

A sincere thanks to Bob & Margaret Hoyle and the Hoyle family for their huge effort donating the funds for the back of Lodge, games room ceiling and the upper room restoration. Work is cracking on at a blistering pace thanks to Gary and the A-team guests for their manpower while receiving learning and experience along the way.

Arapohue gym

Recent focus has been on kitting out the Arapohue gym and we've raised $2,500 towards a $3,500 Smith gym machine which is a one-stop shop. We have $800 to go to reach this goal. We've had a garage sale and the men have worked hard on church working bees to raise these funds. Can you please help with the last bit? Account details below, ref: GYM

A big thanks to Gary and Carolyn Saunders from Bless & Equip Ministries Putaruru who donated this Bowflex Extreme machine below to add to the men's gym. We are very grateful.

Urgent warning

We encourage you to listen to this very powerful prophetic message from Jeremiah Johnson to pastors and church leaders.

Women needing help

We get many calls from women needing help. Do you know of any Christian residential healing and recovery centres or rehabs that you would recommend? Can you please share those details with Ray on ray@thewildside.net - thank you!
