Imagine a world without clergy burnout. 

There is an alarming departure rate from the ministry. There is an answer! Full-time pastors and missionaries need to experience Sabbath rest with their spouses and families. 

Consider the vast world of short-term rentals, including platforms like Airbnb and VRBO, which involve millions of independent, entrepreneurial-minded vacation home owners globally. 

What if there was a dedicated short-term rental platform allowing these millions of hosts to generously contribute free night stays to support full-time ministers and their families in their need for respite? 

Herein lies the potential to be the most impactful and comprehensive solution to combat clergy burnout worldwide. 

This is a game changer. 

Lodge Lovers, in collaboration with Be Stillbnb, proudly presents this platform. We are passionate about strengthening the Church by supporting Christ-led, Bible-following Church leaders and missionaries. 

Here are some things to know:

For Clergy:

You can apply as a full-time missionary or clergy member. Just visit LodgeLovers.com and setup your account by clicking 'Clergy rest' in the main menu. During setup there are additional questions for clergy.

Once your application is complete you will be able to see the available properties but will need to wait upon approval before you can reserve as an approved missionary or church leader.

If you already have a Lodge Lovers account, click on 'Clergy Rest' from the home page to update your settings and fill out the clergy member application.

All applicants will be communicated with via email about their approval.
