I am trying to start out in ministry again after a long time being out due to having to earn an income to live. I cannot afford a building and was thinking of a motor home. It is a place people can meet together on a small scale until things improved. I thought I would take it to atleast a few different locations on a regular schedule. I also figured I could equip it with a lot of pull-out bunk beds that would be able to be collapsed and taken out of the way. This way the nights I was able to stay in it myself I could use it as a make shift shelter for some of the homeless that attended regularly. It would also have a kithen to feed meals to people in need. It would basically be a mobile church and outreach center. What do people here think? Would this be a good idea?

Depending on where you live you'll need to check your insurance/public liabilty/health and safety legislation. Also I'd suggest investing in large awning/tent to maximise space.

edit*also a sat dish internet connection might be real useful as a way of keeping in contact with the various souls in various towns.

Sounds like a great idea!

I'll pray that your rolling ministry is a success. :)

A mobile home isnt a bad idea but it may cause some people to go away so the best thing to do is disguise it the best you can.
