Dear brothers and sisters, I know I said that I would not post again until I left Hunter Valley, but then I thought about it and prayed about it

I can’t just leave things as they are. This Hunter Valley ‘divide’ has to end. I am quite clear in my mind who are the ones who have done the most damage and have perpetrated the most abuse on so many brothers and sisters. 

But there has to be a way back, for forgiveness. You who have given so many people so much pain for such a long time, who have bullied and abused your brothers and sisters causing  pain to so many. You know who you are, and if you don’t know there are plenty here in Hunter Valley to remind you.

I am asking you now to humbly apologise to those people you have harmed and damaged. Ask ask their forgiveness. And of course, none of us a squeaky clean. We have “all sinned and done evil in God’s sight.” We are all “the man.” Please could you all ask forgiveness from the person or persons to whom we owe forgiveness. 

Can there be in the Hunter Valley a wave of love and peace and joy towards each other. I will start the ball rolling. I know that I often suffer from “foot in mouth disease,” I am sure there are those to whom I owe an apology and need to be forgiven. Will you all forgive me for the harm I have done to you, and will you not turn to your neighbour and say the same. 

I am sorry, I have hurt you and I am guilty before God for my unkindness to you. Please accept my humble apology to you for the hurt Id have given you and the heartache you have endured at my hand. 

Dear brother, sister, and for me, particularly the Ryan boys.  I love you, you know I love you and it grieves me that I have hurt you. Please love me in return and forgive my my sinning toward you.

Brothers and sisters if we can do this, there is no sin so great that it cannot be forgiven. Please, if I have done harm in this Valley, let me now do some good. I ask you, I beg you, to forget past bitterness and love each other. God is love, God commands us to love the brothers and sisters of this Valley. We don’t have time, left we are in the time of “time no longer,” if we don’t judge ourselves now, we will be judged none-the-less. 

I ask you to turn to your neighbour whoever he may be and put your arms around him and love him/her. 

Your sister in Christ,

Fay e
