Our Heart

Scripture foundation and the purpose of Kindle Afresh Ministry.

Why We Share This Place

We understand that serving in ministry has its own unique challenges. Many pastors carry a smoldering wick — still burning, but in need of fresh flame.

This is the most peaceful and most beautiful place we have ever experienced. God has motivated us to share it with others in a way that will advance His Kingdom.

Allow yourself to relax and listen with all your senses. You will experience the presence of God.

“For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made.”

— Romans 1:20

Is someone in your congregation trying to convince you that you need a break? Maybe you are unaware of how close you are to burnout. Jesus did not ask His disciples if they needed a break. He told them, commanded them, to take a break. If you’d like to rekindle your passion for serving the Lord, KAM would like to provide a secluded place for you to get away.

Scripture Foundation

The Word of God calls those who serve Him to come away, rest, pray, and kindle afresh. These passages form the foundation of our ministry.

Come Away & Rest

    Matthew 11:28–29
  • “…who shall be a man of rest, and I will give him rest from all his enemies on every side…”

    1 Chronicles 22:9

  • “Jesus Himself would often slip away to the wilderness and pray.”

Kindle Afresh ἀναζωπυρέω

The Greek word anazōpureō means “to stir up; to rekindle a flame.” Many who labor in ministry need not a louder calling, but a quiet place to fan the embers back to life.

Purpose & Vision

Purpose

Our purpose is to strengthen the leadership and educational effectiveness within American churches by improving the quality of the clergyman’s ministry, motivating more and more to share and teach the truth.

Vision

Our vision is an increase in numbers and strength of the Royal Family of God resulting in exponential growth worldwide.

Our Priorities

  1. Provide a place of rest and renewal for a minister (and his wife).
  2. Give an opportunity to recharge physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.
  3. Keep this ministry focused on ministers who are void of false doctrines and have a Kingdom-oriented mindset.
  4. Prevent KAM from becoming programmatic which could create distractions from our guests’ needs. The effectiveness of the minister’s rest and renewal process is dependent upon the minister and his uniquely self-tailored mission essentials, tactics, techniques and procedures for rest and renewal.

We recommend you start with prayer.
