Women Encouraging Women – Guest: Carla with Growing in Torah – 7/19/14
Karla is a wife and mother living in Central California. She’s been married to her husband, Bryan, for 22 years, and together they raised and homeschooled their three daughters, Emily 21, Leah 19, and Marian 17. They began their Torah-observant journey 14 years ago, and have been blessed to be part of a local fellowship which hosts weekly Shabbat meetings, a Messianic youth camp (Messiah West Coast), and a Sukkot gathering on Bryan and Karla’s 10-acre farm in Orosi, CA.
Although Bryan is a pilot by trade, he found himself in full-time farming a few years ago. Karla’s transition from a pilot’s wife to a farmer’s wife has been an interesting challenge! Their latest adventure began 3 years ago when the Father gave Bryan the vision to start Growing in Torah, a program for college-aged youth to live on their farm learning all aspects of organic farming, food preservation, life skills, basic Hebrew, agricultural aspects of scripture, and much more.
Growing in Torah has been a life-changing experience for Karla and her family. While there are plenty of challenges, she’s been overwhelmed with how the Father is using this program to not only transform the lives of the young adults, but her life as well and the lives of those around her. They are continuously being challenged to be diligent in their walk with Yahweh as they allow HIM to weed out selfishness, discontentment, complacency, and the many other distractions the enemy uses to keep us from walking in the abundant life that Yahweh wants to bless us His children with.
