Testimonials

“I was stabbed in the leg and robbed while hiking with a friend in Muizenberg, Cape Town. This seriously shook my sense of security and I thought I could never go on hikes again, even in my own country in Scandinavia. The leg healed in two months but my heart was sore much longer. However, I was determined to work through this trauma. Four months later, I did the debriefing with Le Rucher in South Africa. At the end of the week I ventured out into nature by myself. It was a victory, a start of reclaiming something that isn’t just my favourite form of exercise, but a way to meet with God and rejuvenate my soul. A year later I was interviewed about my life as a missionary in South Africa, and only afterwards I realized that I didn’t even remember to mention this incident. It proved to me that I had worked through the trauma in which the debriefing week was essential. It gave me words to express and even understand my experience as well as hope and tools to recover from it.”

“I’ve had the privilege to be debriefed by a Le Rucher debriefer twice. When I think about both times some of the words that come to mind are: breathe, lighter and clarity. To share very honestly, not some, but all of the harder things you experience working cross-culturally with someone that listens well and patiently without judgement, brings a feeling of relief that I am not sure how to describe. Perhaps this is where the word breathe comes in. The way the Le Rucher process is centered around Jesus, the cross and God’s heart for us brought me to a place where I was able to lay down things that I took up or had to carry, experiences that I did not have answers or explanations for and reminded me that He is God and He is faithful and trustworthy. It made me feel much lighter.

With the Le Rucher training, (I believe) and the debriefer’s gifting she was able to ask good questions at the right time. She also guided me with the use of professional tools based on solid research that has been very helpful in the two years between my two debriefings. It brought clarity to experiences and emotions that I often did not understand and mostly felt guilty about.

I have a deep appreciation for the Le Rucher debriefing process, but even more for the debriefer’s heart to come alongside people and help us carry on doing what God is calling us to.”

– Worker based in the Middle East.

Testimonials

“My debriefing with a Le Rucher debriefer unlocked critical insight which I needed to be able to move on. The process provides you with the tools to navigate the inward journey. The dependence on the Holy Spirit allows for this to truly be used by God. I strongly recommend that you set time apart and engage fully.”

– Leader of a South African mission organisation.

“The entire process was cathartic for our team as it opened our eyes to how our ministry work affects us. It has made us more aware of the trauma we experience from our work and has given us the tools we need to work through it. It has give us a better understanding of one another, which has strengthened us as a team. Thank you so much for giving us a Biblical perspective on suffering and for nurturing us through the entire process. While creating a safe space for us to talk openly about our experiences as well as personal space to reflect on experiences that have deeply affected us. We were truly encouraged and blessed through this time.”
