We’re All in Need of Some Mending

We’re all in need of some mending.

Life is tough. We all get a bit bruised, battered, torn, and worn. Sometimes we just don’t know how to get whole again.

The book of Matthew tells us the story of Peter pulling in nets full of fish while John sits in the boat mending the nets which allows Peter to continue his fishing. While many focus on the call to action of being “fishers of men”, the role of John’s “mending of the nets” is often overlooked.

During the time of the disciples, fishing nets were made of linen so the nets had to be carefully cleaned and dried each day or they would quickly rot and wear out. One important skill of fishermen was making and mending their nets.

We are God’s nets. He casts us into the world to be fishers of men and in that casting, we get worn, torn, and broken.

Mending Nets Ministries has a desire to mend the physically, emotionally, and spiritually torn.

A desire to mend people back to wholeness.

Mending People Back to Wholeness

Mending Nets Ministries seeks to open up a raw, authentic dialogue around trauma. We have a passion for talking about what trauma is and want to have an honest conversation about its effects on people. Mending Nets Ministries also has a desire to educate how movement, mindfulness, and meditation can facilitate healing for those who have trauma. 

Our passion is to work with people who have been disconnected from their mind, body, and spirit due to life events. We seek to facilitate awareness of how past events/situations/trauma can affect how one interacts with present situations. 

Restore, Equip, and Attune

Mending Nets Ministries seeks to facilitate mending through workshops, trainings, and speaking events on topics on how to regulate the nervous system, cultivate present-moment awareness, and building resilience. Also, mending mind, body, and soul with yoga, mindfulness, and meditation classes; and going deeper with writings that discuss trauma, mindfulness, yoga, and how they’re powerful tools to use on one’s healing journey to wholeness.
