The earth belongs to YHWH and all in it ...

Whether you're a monarchist or republican, a long weekend to celebrate the Queen's birthday is always appreciated!  I thoroughly enjoyed having family and friends up on Sunday and Monday to enjoy the perfect weather, the Hebron environment and fellowship.

Taking in the views as we sat out on the verandah having lunch together was a real treat today.  What a privilege and joy it is to enjoy this property with each other. 


Today we moved the flock over to the top paddock and tagged/vaccinated our newest addition.  Unfortunately we lost a lamb last week, despite having the extra alpaca, so the battle against the fox menace continues.


 Many hands make light work when it comes to shoring up the fence line against intruders.  Of course very cute pink gumboots gives the working party a touch of panache!


Together we made progress to ensure the greenhouse is around for a few more years yet, as well as giving it an overdue tidy up.  Brendan also ripped up the rabbit warren to ensure pesky visitors are not made welcome.


Brendan made progress with investigating the bore pump shamozzle, as well as installing an internet connection on the solar unit so we can view our usage.

Today was one of those days that just makes you so very appreciative of this life and journey that YHWH has given us.  The tasks and little improvements we do here and there all keep Hebron ticking along and help to create an environment where YHWH's Name is honoured, relationships are fostered and souls are refreshed.

Until next time ...

Sukkot 2024

The Healing to the Nations fellowship came together to celebrate Sukkot here at Hebron and what a blessed time it was. It seems that since Sukkot life and work got crazy busy so an update on our time together slipped off the priority list.  But as I reflect back on our time together and what has transpired since then I am again encouraged. There was a flurry of preparation in the meeting room and sukkah, and Hebron was ready for a big week of fellowship, praise and times with our King and Adonai.  Although there was one big disappointment because I could not locate the flags that we line the driveway with.  Colourful flags will definitely make an appearance for Sukkot 2025 though. Not everyone was able to come up at Sukkot and they were missed but there is always next year.  Father Yehovah's wisdom in establishing the annual feasts is such a powerful prophetic witness and joy for Messiah's body. The highlight of Sukkot is always spending time under the sukkah in the ...

Blessed Dry Times

In Australia it's summer time.  In South Australia it's particularly dry and there is a real possibility of below average rainfall for the autumn season as well.  This is not unusual for our part of the country.  It's part of the natural cycles and here at Hebron we take the necessary preparations.  The dams are drying up but we have plenty of rainwater in the tanks and a bore that draws up water from 60 metres below, so for a short dry spell we are well prepared. We have enough dry feed in the paddocks and bales of hay for the flock of sheep to get us through this dry season.  I'm actually grateful for this dry spell this month because it means that the evil caltrop has not germinated, saving me from a lot of work.  Caltrop (think the most evil version of a three-corner jack!) needs higher temperatures and good spring rains to germinate - usually in early December.  Caltrop and I will continue our battle if we get rain before the summer ends though!

Sheep of His Pasture

The guys have been out fixing fences so that our flock can move into the paddock.  The roos have a tendency to break fences and dig holes so it's an ongoing chore unfortunately.  Whilst it's rather nice to see them out in the paddocks, and to see when the joeys emerge from the pouch, it can be frustrating as well. Moving the flock into a different paddock is always one of my favourite things to do because you get to give them a closer check and they're always excited about going into a fresh paddock.   So late in the afternoon last Friday I thought, why not share it with you as well.  Enjoy a quick visit to Hebron and I pray that wherever you are, in whatever pasture our Father YHVH has you, that you are blessed and experiencing His overshadowing kindness.
