About the Author

Meryl Bishop is originally from South Africa, where she first developed her love of the sea. At the age of 18, she landed a job in the Pensions Department in a South African government office. A co-worker there was influential in helping her decide to commit her life to Christ, and her journey with Him took her through Bible School and to a job at a Christian bookstore. While working at the Christian Bookstore in South Africa, Meryl learned about Stonecroft Ministries and became involved in a local group. She came to the USA in 1980 to visit Stonecroft for two and a half months. While there, the Lord changed the direction of her life and her two and a half month visit turned into 28 years of service as a National Representative and then a National Prayer Consultant for Stonecroft Ministries. She also became a US citizen. Now, after "retiring," Meryl pursues her writing, and continues to travel for Stonecroft on a volunteer basis conducting her Keeping Watch prayer events and speaking at outreach groups.
