Who we are

Hi! We’re Cory & Arica Thompson. The crazy couple that woke up one day and thought, “Let’s buy a church!” Okay, there was a little more thought to it than that.

We’ve actually spent the last 12 years restoring and saving things old and forgotten. Our original plan was to do one more project. We wanted to turn a church into a home. But then we stepped into the space, we felt it’s energy, and we knew this church wanted to become more.

Our vision is a welcoming space to host retreats, gatherings, holistic events, and more. A beautiful haven for healing, restoring, and celebrating. We plan to keep the vibration here high so that anyone stepping into this building feels safe and loved by our creator. What we aren’t doing is starting a church.

Cory has over 30 years of experience in construction and Arica is 8 years young into her own massage and wellness career. With these combinations we feel confident that this space will be gorgeous and healing. Follow our blog to see our journey in live time.
