We don't have to be right in order to be loving.

Perhaps the story of the hour is the many fine people that the Crestwood vision is attracting to Net2Church. We have come to realize that pastors are often being ignored, and many of us are realizing that we have abused our greatest resource simply by over-working them, and not empowering them to have a lifestyle that keeps them loved and refreshed, and connected outside of their local congregation.

We are people that want to love our pastors, people with a heart for unity in the body of Christ, and people with a desire for regional activity and spiritual growth. We are people with a strong desire to build loving communities across our seven state region with Jesus as our guide.

The northeast USA has not been famous for cultivating warm and generous attitudes that easily cross denominational lines. More frequently, these lines has been divisive and exclusive. Our Net2Church motives reside in the heart of Christians to build unity with others in Christ, and with God regardless of where we stand in the transformation process, for we are all wrong about some things.

Crestwood -

Financial - Please understand that Crestwood is still for sale, and we have not signed an agreement to purchase it. We are trusting God for the finances to move ahead with this vision.

Having said that, we are actively involved in doing what it takes to build this retreat center at this location. If for some reason, we are unable to accomplish our goal at Crestwood, we will build our first retreat center at another location when the funding is available.

Therefore we ask you to support this ministry now, that a retreat center may be built, if not here, than somewhere else as soon as possible. We are losing 1500 pastors monthly, and entire congregations are affected by this fallout.

Why Crestwood - Crestwood was seen in a vision during the summer of 2009, by David Thayer, before actually finding or seeing it in the natural. The vision was so real that he checked MLS listings every two weeks until he found it. He spotted the MLS listing on October 26th, 2009, just a few weeks after he had another vision to reactivate the Net2Church ministry that had been dormant for three years.

Plans for Crestwood - The purpose for Crestwood is as a multi-function community resource center, that provides a retreat center for pastors, a networking center for Christian artists and musicians, and eventually a center for Christian education and personal growth.
