Shalom Prayer Cabin
The story behind The Shalom cabin.
After my brother died unexpectedly a few years ago I asked God, “How can I honor my brother with the inheritance he has given me?” He said to me, “Build a prayer cabin and call it Shalom.” We are excited to now bless you with this place of beauty and solitude. May the grace and love of the Lord Jesus embrace you here.
My brother loved the Lord, was a farmer, and he struggled with challenging illnesses. I’m sure he would wish you to be blessed with an intimate, personal relationship with Jesus, and to be blessed with His shalom. Our prayer for you, as you spend a time of quiet and stillness with Jesus in this cabin, is that as you bring whatever is broken in your life to Him, He will restore you to wholeness, fullness and completeness…… And that your life will be filled with flourishing, delight, safety and the deep inner rest anchored in all that Shalom means and is. Jesus is your Shalom!
Be assured of our prayers for you,
Janet
Peace (shalom) I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27
“The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace (shalom).” Numbers 6:24-26
The Shalom Prayer Cabin is a custom built, stick framed building tucked into the woods on the edge of the prayer cabin village. With its “single level” floor plan it feels roomy and is easily accessible. It boasts a large picture window with a view of the wetlands, a beautiful gas fireplace, a mini-split air source heat pump unit to provide both heating and air-conditioning, microwave, toaster, refrigerator, coffee maker, a few basic dishes, silverware, a sink and water jug for drinking and cooking needs, and miscellaneous utensils.
To make your stay as comfortable as possible a queen-sized bed, table and chairs, rocking chair and a comfortable twin sleeper loveseat are provided.
A very modern, well lit, heated pit toilet is close to the cabin but also a fully modern bathroom with shower is a few hundred feet away. View a photo tour of our shower house and outhouses.
Parking for your car is about 100’ from the cabin with a level path leading right to the front porch.
