Biography
I am the husband of a beautiful wife and eight children. I am in my mid-thirties and  worked in construction, academia, and ministry. I live off-grid in my 3000 square foot Quonset hut homestead that I built with my own hands in the intersection of Northern Appalachian coal country and an Amish Paradise in the Keystone State.

We now produce all of our own electricity from solar, our own water from a spring, compost all of our own waste, burn firewood for our heat, raise goats for our milk, hogs for our meat, gardens and greenhouses for our produce, and chickens and ducks for our eggs; All guarded from vermin and predators by cats and Great Pyrenees dogs.

In spite of being greatly satisfied in all of this, we lack community, and as Christians, are looking to start a communal village based on permaculture principles and sound Scriptural doctrine somewhere outside of the United States, likely in the global south (whether on an island in the Caribbean or in deepest Africa, or wherever God leads us).

If you are reading this, and are intrigued by such an idea, feel free to message me directly. God bless.

It is very interesting post.

Joshua I cannot find your website. I would like to know more about you, and how far you are in building up christian community.

If I undarstood you properly you receive all children as a blessing. We believe the same. We have 5 little children, which they are great blessing.

I try to follow Christ and I believe real way for Christian is when we take cross and deny ourselves, loving neighbors and enemies, no gathering treasures on the earth.

''And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.'' 1 John 2:3

Great commandment from the Lord is to love one another.

I think in many different movements were and are people who love Christ and Holy Spirit is leading them to this understanding.


I think this things are very important. Also I think when we can is good to be self-sufficient and to live more naturally.

We are looking for this possibilities. I will be very happy to meet people who are looking for the same.

May God bless you.

Michal

Alyssa Hoch wrote:Hi! My email is Alyssa.kh555@gmail.com I have recently really been feeling a call towards survivalism and homesteading to start preparing for end times and be around like minded people. I currently have two cats and a dog and am a 29 year old female massage therapist and am on my own. I am really seeking community with others who want to live this way and I just started looking into it and found this forum. I hope I’m not too late to connect on this. I’d love to hear from you and get more info. Thanks!



I will be reaching out to your directly via email. God Bless.

Rhonda, we are planning to do multiple locations, but our flagship location will be in North Eastern Oklahoma in the Ozark Foothills or what is called "the Oklahoma green country." Very unregulated, green, and hilly. The water is pure and the land is clean, over 1000 acres which is only for off-grid and sustainable building and agriculture (only kind that will be occurring there).

The community is a "Christian Exodus Project" which is a ministry of Christ the King Fellowship (The church) in partnership with the local property owner who will also be a member of the community. The community is a Christian community and is operated by the heads-of-households and the ordained elders (ministry team) of the church and is governed by biblical rules and common-sense.  The community is called "The Jesus Village at Haven Springs."

Please go through our vetting questions on our new website for the community here:  https://jesusvillage.org/get-involved.html

After your complete the vetting, you will then be scheduled for a phone interview with one of the men from our ministry team for the personal interview, after which there is only one or two more steps, which after completing successfully, will result in you being offered an opportunity to join the project and buy/or receive a lot in the village.

P.S.

We still plan, as part of our longer-term goals, to build communities in the Caribbean and still have active connections there (especially in Dominica); however, one thing at a time right now until God blesses us with more team members and funds.

The main site is here, which will tell you more about what we are about:  https://jesusvillage.org/index.html

We have some pictures on the location and team tabs (we plan on adding more in next few months), but the "goals" really tell you about our core mission points.

Our old site is still being used, but will be made into a group blog later this year: https://christianexodus.net/

"The About" and "FAQ" sections are helpful here.

We believe that unless you are born of water and of Spirit you cannot enter the Kingdom of God.

We are Christians.
