I am an Orthodox clergyman who like all clergymen during the holidays, receive many requests for assistance from all over the US. The economy has been hard on many and there are many of our own who are on the street or a paycheck away from being on the street. I am sure almost all of us knows someone in the Church in this humbling predicament, who are looking for a way to preserve their dignity (and sanity) and perhaps even provide for their family.
I am testing the waters and interested in seeking God's will in having a Tiny House community started in California for Orthodox Christians. We have some bare land with utilities, an old farm house and 20 acres and all the free water we can use. It would need tons of work to start off. To be honest, I don't even know where to begin and do not have a lot of time or resources to contribute. I envision a self-sustaining community where people both old and young seek to live out there faith, pray together and help one another. We have two Orthodox Churches in town only 10 minutes away each. We have a little experience with organic farming, aquaponics, and farm animals. I will leave it at that and see what interest there might be. I know the economy is rough for many of the faithful and would love to open it eventually to those most in need. May God's Will be done.
