L’Abri 2
November 15, 2017
Francis and Edith Schaeffer simply acted in faith and opened their home to folks who wanted to find answers to their questions and demonstrate in practical ways Christian care.
They opened their home in Switzerland in 1955. Today 9 locations provide a place for students to study, work together, experience community.
As I sat in the Holland location I wished to stay in the library forever. Students had with permission gleaned fallen apples from a nearby orchard. A unique place, for sure. But thousands have grown in their faith as a result of one couple who stepped out in faith.
Psalm 91: 1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” L’Abri is such a place.
