Our Story
this is who we are
We adore storytelling
we were born out of one!
Aster was born out of a late night, joy-filled exchange between sisters. Sharing silly and creative stories one evening, the word ‘Aster’ jumped from the page and into my heart.
I remember asking my sister what the word meant. ‘It’s an old-timey Afrikaans word for girl’. I’m going to do something with that word one day, I thought.
It’s too beautiful not to share.
Little did I know the road Aster would walk – travelling the world gathering stories of Grace. Never did she leave me, even when I tried to shake her and run away.
That tends to happen when Jesus gives you a gift. It’s nonrefundable.
So here she is. She gets to be authentic. She gets to be messy.
She gets to grow and change. Just like we do.
to God.
not alone.
it out.

Hello
I am Jané
No one knows what they’re doing. At least, I don’t. You’ve come to the right place for support, laughter, some good cries, because I in fact, do not have my life together. I have no answers and don’t pretend to. Join me in my pursuit of getting comfortable with not always knowing, not always understanding and not always liking what I find. What I do know for sure, is this.
Jesus is immutable. Immovable. Never changing. He knows. That’s enough.
