“How is God leading our church to respond to homelessness?”
Settled has developed a roadmap to help your congregation plant a Sacred Settlement. At each stage, we provide guidance, tools, approaches, experience, and one-to-one partnership.
We are in this together.
Stage one
3-6 months
Discern
The church answers: "how might a Sacred Settlement enhance our church's mission?" We'll help you build a team, make a plan, and walk your congregation through the discernment process.
Stage two
6 months
Plan
We help the church develop and design an operational framework for how they intend to implement the five elements of the Full Community model in their Sacred Settlement according to their unique calling and strengths.
Stage three
6-9 months
Build
From renovating church land and building to training key volunteers, everything materializes in this stage, leading to the Grand Opening celebration. We help you keep momentum all the way through.
Stage four
everlasting
Steward
The Settlement is filled with life. Everyone seeks to grow deep roots and nurture enduring, trusted relationships. We help you graft into a larger community, pursuing a shared way of life together.
This process has been designed to help you adapt the Full Community model to your unique location and gifting. Every Sacred Settlement has its own challenges and opportunities. We look forward to working shoulder-to-shoulder with you.
