  • Imagine a weary pastor beside the fireplace, free for a while from schedules, demands, and expectations.
  • Imagine missionaries and their families sharing a meal with friends who understand the burdens they carry.
  • Imagine couples praying together, ministry teams gathering for renewal, and families rediscovering the joy of drawing near to Jesus.

IMAGINE WHAT GOD CAN DO HERE

The Barn Commons is being created for moments like these—a place where pastors, missionaries, ministry leaders, and their families can slow down, reconnect, and be renewed in God’s presence.

Come as you are. Lay down what you carry. Rest in God’s presence. No striving. No pretense. Just come.

A PLACE TO GATHER, SHARE, AND BE RENEWED

The Barn Commons will provide a warm, welcoming space for shared meals, conversation, prayer, teaching, and fellowship.

With a spacious kitchen, open gathering area, and loft above, it is designed to help pastors, missionaries, ministry leaders, and their families slow down, reconnect, and experience renewal with the Lord and one another.

OUR TWO-YEAR CAMPAIGN GOAL
$375,000

Beginning in September 2026,

we are inviting friends, families, churches, and ministry partners to help us raise

$375,000 over two years to build The Barn Commons.

Whether through a one-time gift, monthly giving, or a commitment spread across the campaign,

every gift helps create a lasting place of rest, renewal, and hospitality

for pastors, missionaries, ministry leaders, and their families.

A NOTE ABOUT GIVING THROUGH ZEFFY

Be assured, we chose Zeffy so that

100% of your donation to The Barn Commons comes to The Shepherd’s Tavern.

Zeffy does not deduct processing fees from your gift.

Zeffy suggests an optional contribution to support its platform. That amount is separate from your gift to The Barn Commons and can be changed or removed before you complete your donation.
