The House

A stone home with soft light and steady walls.

Tucked into a small French village beside Restored & Renewed Ministry, this home will become an extension of the care already happening there — opening more space for those who have given so much.

  • Overflow housing for missionaries on retreat
  • A quiet room for counseling and one-on-one care
  • Terrace, orchard, and garden walking paths
  • Sustained between stays as a hospitable Airbnb
