Restore His Workers is
a ministry founded to restore missionaries to : God
                                                                    Them self
                                                                    Their calling
                                                                    Their family &friends & supporters
                                                                    Their church
                                                                    Their ministry
                                                                    Their culture
We plan to do this by offering long term ( max 6 months) weekly counseling for free,and a place to stay in a lovely private forest setting if needed.
                                                                                                    
Over the last 14 years in missions we found many missionaries burned out due to :
fighting the battle alone /many work hours per week / lack of support / loss of vision / not seeing results /no vacations / no privacy / no place to call home / no understanding from their home front / loss of their own culture / sickness / giving in to temptations.
 
Today, many missionaries have a hard time finding the needed support, prayer -cover, counseling, encouragement, etc in their churches to keep standing AND be effective in the front lines of the battle of souls against the enemy.
Many western churches see spiritual warfare as a 'superstitious' thing or a 'if you don't think about it, it is not going to bother you' kind of thing ...Any missionary will soon find out the battle is 'HOT' and laborers are few; Luke 10:2-12
 
For this reason we offer counseling to burned out missionaries (and if needed their churches /ministry / home front)
 - so they will either be able to return to the mission field and be stronger and more effective than before
 - or so they can return to their home town and church without any shame / sence of failure /unresolved personal issues
   and be rested enough to have a task in their home church in a different area.
 
We also offer help to churches to take better care of their missionaries ( whether they return home or continue with missions)
and we network between ministries and churches on behalf of our fellow missionaries.
 
                                                    Missionaries needing counseling and a place to live with us for one month or longer  (max 6
                                                    months) may ask for an application form     esterkoster@hotmail.com
                                                    For this service we prioritise helping missionaries who have been in the mission field for 5
                                                    years or longer. This because we are called to counsel missionaries who are burned out
                                                    ''because of'' their work for the Lord.
                                                      We will however help any missionary in need any way we can at all times.
                                                 
                                                    We pay the mortgage of the land and raise funds to build the cabins ; any missionary staying
                                                    with us is asked to cover their own living expenses(food, electricity, travel expenses,damage)
                                                     If a missionary cannot cover their own living expences we'll help raise funds together with him/her.
