We are stronger together (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)! Thank you for your support. Through One Shepherd Ministries we have been called to build a new and unique online Christian Community to unite believers, Churches, and businesses run by Christians. This community will not only provide a public space for believers to come together to talk, chat, and even video conference, but will provide much needed resources for churches to meet online via voice and/or video (for things like live streaming services to members, prayer meetings...etc).

We have broken the campaign up in to 3 phases...

Phase 1 - Infrastructure and Online Site development 4 months ($57,761)

The investment during this time is for equipment and infrastructure, cost for site development including "man hours" for administrative time, site development and ongoing beta testing with 3 churches (approximately 300 members in the community) and possibly adding 3 Businesses. Offering a least 1 public community event. Investment will also cover expense for event presenter.

Phase 2 - Expansion of Beta Testing 4 months ($61,825)

Expansion to build to 1000 active community members with at least 5 churches, 10 Businesses and offering at least 2 public community events.

The investment during this time will include additional investment in equipment and infrastructure as well as ongoing development & testing as well as onboarding/training of moderation staff and the costs of speakers for 2 events.

Phase 3 - Full Launch of Community ($88,832)

The final stage will be the public launch of the community and transition from a beta model to a full fledged subscription service.

The investment during this time will be utilized to maintain necessary operation personnel and infrastructure necessary for developing a fee based system. Further funds will be utilized for outreach and promotion of the community to Churches, individuals, and businesses so the Community becomes self sustaining financially.

”Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up the other; but woe to one who is alone and falls and does not have another to help. Again, if two lie together, they keep warm; but how can one keep warm alone? And though one might prevail against another, two will withstand one. A threefold cord is not quickly broken.“
