We are all constantly seeking a home, a place we feel comfortable in or a spot that our staff can rest in. Many Beyond folks refer to base camp as home. The second year staff whisper under their breath as they first step off the boat, "I am home"
But for some this place is still fresh and not yet familiar enough to call home. "Moving in" was hard, it took a long time and felt slow, but moving in is also the process of learning how to call a place home which can be hard and slow. My prayer for this summer is that the Beyond community realizes that this can be a place they call home but no matter if it is a place of rest or comfort, it is a place where God's grace is present and His will is done. I cannot think of two better characteristics for a home to have.
Always, Lauren Miller staff 2005, 2006 and opening crew 2007

Rob,
What a great idea to have a blog!
Beyond Malibu is such a special place. Visiting our daughter, Annie in the summer of 2004 was an amazing time for Kent and me and we cherish our time there. So, many blessings have come from the community, especially Josh and now Sahale.
May Jesus continue to bless the Beyond Malibu ministry. Sylvia and Kent Ackley
P.S. Hello to Liz, Lacy, Kristin, Ponch and Joe. Hope you are having a great summer!
