Sanctuary House

05/30/2026

Meet our very first guests! They sent us a video after being with us for 3 months to let everyone who has partnered with the Sanctuary House ministry know how they were strengthened and encouraged by their time on the property. SO many have participated since we first started work on the house! It’s amazing to watch God’s plan come together and for ministry to begin!

We wanted to share how God protected the Sanctuary House during the serious storms over the weekend. Our street had severe damage from wind gusts with many large trees down and other damage. Thankful for no injuries! We are so grateful for the new top rated quality roof that was put on earlier this year by Veritas Roofing and the land clearing by Rockin T Services LLC that was done last week which cleared the trees that would have impacted the house. Our guests only lost power to the well for the night but it was restored in the morning. We are thankful for God’s protection over our guests and the hedge of protection around the property!

Rockin T Services LLC has done an incredible job clearing the land at the Sanctuary House! They’re generous, professional services were much needed as we prepare the land for a fence and create a safe yard for our families to use. One of the most special gifts at this property is the peaceful view with rolling hills, quiet area, gorgeous sunsets and a place to rest in God’s creation. We will continue to work on tree trimming, dirt work, and grass as our current stage of the renovations!

One year ago we were installing new electrical wiring in the house, and through many, many efforts of generous friends, we are now hosting our first ministry couple as our first guests! It is such a joy to see this couple arrive! We have enjoyed having their feedback on the different things at the house that have been a blessing from comfortable beds and sheets, to good water quality, beautiful colorful decor, and much more! This is all part of the efforts of so many generous friends through the last 8 years. We are going to focus now on the outside of the property! Stay tuned for needs, ways you can participate and pray as we plan for a fence, prayer garden, driveway, grass, land clearing, etc. God’s favor is on this ministry as we have seen!

Share, share, share! We are THRILLED to announce that our ministry partnership with Servant Care is official! The Lord connected us with this organization that shares our mission to provide a ministry of hospitality to those serving in full-time Christian ministry. Their network of over 300 ministry homes are available to be booked through their online booking system making it helpful for missionaries, pastors, etc. to locate available homes around the world. Servant Care not only seeks to assist with housing, but supports the guests and hosts with prayer support, counseling resources, encouragement, and other resources that help renew and refresh the ministry calling they have received. Please share this with anyone who may be serving in full-time ministry who is in need of temporary to longer-term housing!

The Sanctuary House is a designated home for serving those in full-time ministry. This home is located on 1 acre of peaceful land overlooking rolling hills with animals and spectacular sunsets! It is at the end of a quiet country road and is a good place for peaceful walks. This home has been recent...

Nation’s Pure Water Systems has blessed the Sanctuary House with a brand new water softener system and reverse osmosis water filtration system at an enormous discount! We want to be good stewards of our new plumbing, appliances and water lines. The house is served by a well with extremely hard water and needed to have a water treatment system to have good drinking water. We are grateful for their willingness to support our ministry in this way!
