Kurt & Gudrun Redmann

Founders - Home of the Good Shepherd

As a young person Gudrun (Behm) Redmann’s wish/calling was to go into missions, possibly India, to serve the Lord full time. At 17 years of age Kurt Redmann had a dream, he saw a pond surrounded by yellow bamboo with people drowning in the pond. The skin colour of the people was not black, rather they appeared to be tanned. Kurt was standing on an elevated rock and was trying to rescue the drowning people, at that moment a presence was felt behind him telling him that he needed to be prepared before he could rescue anyone.
