The Encounter Groups have been one of the most transformative parts of my healing journey. What began as a small gathering of hearts hungry for God’s presence has become a safe, sacred space where truth, grace, and restoration flow freely. Week after week, I’ve witnessed the Lord meet people right where they are — healing wounds, restoring hope, and deepening connection. For me personally, these groups have not only strengthened my relationship with God but also birthed deep friendships and a renewed sense of purpose. They're teaching me vulnerability. It’s a place where we don’t have to have it all together — where tears and laughter, prayer and creativity, all weave together into something beautiful. We can belong before we behave and be loved back to life by God through His children. Every session reminds me that healing truly happens in community, and that the same God who meets us in our brokenness is faithful to make something new and whole again when we confess one to the other and carry each other's burdens to fulfil the law of Christ. 'Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. ' James 5:16 — Patrizia “Trixi” Schwartz Facilitator, Healing 💔heARTs💖 Encounter Groups

I enjoyed the painting experience with Trixi. She was very patient with my not knowing with which hand (and how) to hold the paint brush and my overturning the glass of water for washing the paint brushes due to my clumsy left arm following a bad arm injury last year. Although predominantly left handed, I struggle with using the correct hand for many activities including sports and painting. I left knowing that God has got me covered even when it comes to painting. I may not be artistically creative but I feel He is teaching me to open my heart and release my emotions through brushstrokes whether the brush is held by my left or right hand. I am truly grateful for this revelation which I have uncovered from this painting experience.

We had a brilliant afternoon painting a masterpiece! Trixi’s support was amazing and I have actually put my painting on the office wall. Something I thought I would never do. Thank you Trixi for a wonderful experience ❤️
