Sharing the Sandy Cove Story

Over and over again, we're hearing folks tell their stories of how when they pause long enough to hear God at Sandy Cove and talk about what He is saying with others in their lives, renewed strength and hope to go on is found.

Keep in mind, we don't think Sandy Cove is a magic pill for all of life's woes. What we have found though is that when folks disconnect from the pressures in life that are causing us all to get overloaded and connect with God and each other in a place like Sandy Cove - folks re-discover joy, peace and encouragement to go on.

Acts 19:20 Read below to see what guests just like you have to say about their time spent at Sandy Cove...

New Years Extravaganza

My husband and I attended the New Years Extravaganza for 2012. It was our first time at Sandy Cove and it will not be the last. We had a phenominal time. The food was unbelieveable. The place is amazing. Sandy Cove did an awesome job with the program. Paul Pitts was amazing as well as Daren Streblow, Jamey Turner, Michael Faircloth and his friend Jessica that played the violin. Thank you Sandy Cove for a great New Year. That was the way to start a New Year. Thank you!!!

Jesus Lives In The Hearts @ Sandy Cove

My husband and I discovered Sandy Cove Ministries back in 1989 when we moved from New York to York, PA.
Every year on our wedding anniversary we look for a place to celebrate what God has done in our lives.
We met in June 1978 and were married in November 1978. My husband gave his heart to Jesus Christ in May 1978 and I gave my heart to my Lord Jesus Christ in June 1978.
It was a really hard uphill journey for us since we both came from the streets of New York.
I ended up in New York after New Jersey, Texas, Florida and the Bronx, which is a street all of it's own.

New Story for My Life

Jan was a wonderful speaker. I felt she was talking directly to me. I claimed victory in Christ at that conference. When I went home that evening I had a miraculous encounter with Jesus, and though through faith I believed in Him, I now know without any shadow of a doubt, that Jesus is REAL, and He saved me from the rest of my life here from misery. Four years ago my husband died on December 26, and I couldn't move on. In fact, I didn't want to move on. I guess I got some kind of weird pleasure in mourning my loss of Ron.

God Saved My Home!

I contacted my mortgage company, Chase Home Finance, as soon as I saw I would not be able to pay my mortgage. After 5 months, they came back and said I wasn't qualified for Obama's HAMP Program but they'd consider a Chase loan mod program.
To make a long story short, the "Chase Home Mod Program" was higher than my previous mortgage!

So I told Chase I was unable to pay it and hired a law firm to represent me through Chase. After 2-1/2 years, I was finally given a loan modification under the HAMP Program. It will be effective on December 21.

Amazing God Story from Week 3 Summer Together 2011

There was a lady who came with her 2 sons, ages 11 and 6. Recently she had lost her husband tragically when he drowned in 18 inches of water resulting from mental illness. Her 11 year old son is bipolar. Her 6 year old was experiencing struggles from his dad's death. She had been through so much.

Tanker Full of Faith

I talked to Mark Fisher on Friday July 22, 2011 at the closing service of a wonderful week. He had asked if I would share my story.

A Place filled with Gods Love

What a blessing Sandy Cove is to everyone I met there!! We are a family that has been through 3 year long deployments in a 12 year marriage with 5 kids..so needless to say this past year Aug.2009 to July 2010 was the toughest year of my life as a mother who has had a baby during 2 of the 3 deployments. Coming back together as a family is tough too. Sandy Cove not only full heartedly lived up to the phrase "WE SUPPORT OUR TROOPS", they go above and beyond.

Moving Forward

I lost my husband Bob to cancer on 12-27-2008(my birthday). My daughter Lori,
invited me to attend the women's retreat held November 13 to November 15,2009 with speakers, Bonnie Keen, Frances Drost and Carol Kent. Could have not been at a more blessed retreat than that weekend, it was completely awesome, and what an awesome God we have, what a God Wink, to have me attend when these speakers were giving their own testomonies. My friend, daughter Lori and I, had times of tears, sorrow, fun and prayer. I felt like I could move forward with my life,

There is Hope

Coming to Sandy cove has made us realize that there is HOPE and that we are not the only couple that has problems. It was encouraging to meet other couples that have been married for a long time. Sandy Cove helped us prioritize our lives through the Word of God – just by spending time with Him. Being here makes it easy to think about what’s important. We thank you and we pray that we can continue to come back time and time again.

A Turbulent Year

Thank you for the scholarship. Without that, we would not have been able to attend. This weekend was a much needed time for my husband and myself to re-new our closeness and oneness with God. It’s been a turbulent year and at times we tend to forget what each other needs while we deal with the daily issues of surviving. Again, thank you. You have made a positive difference in our lives.
