In today’s fast-paced, urban-centered world, the idea of moving to a rural area often carries a special appeal. Whether it’s the promise of a simpler life, a chance to reconnect with nature, or the opportunity to build a community rooted in shared values, rural living represents a new chapter for many. However, this transition requires careful preparation, thoughtful discussions, and mutual collaboration.
This Zoom session will present current options available, and foster open discussions about destination desires and skill-sharing.

Open Discussions: Finding the Right Fit
Before making any move, it’s essential to have open discussions about everyone’s aspirations and contributions. This could involve:
Sharing Destination Desires
Where do you see yourself thriving? Do you prefer mountains, plains, or forests? A warmer or cooler climate?
What kind of community or solitude are you looking for?
Presenting Skills and Resources
Highlight what you can offer. Are you skilled in construction, mechanics, teaching, or organizing?
Are you financially prepared, or do you need guidance to create a sustainable lifestyle?
Exploring Existing Opportunities
Some individuals or families already have land but need help maintaining or developing it. This can be a chance for skilled believers to step in and build partnerships.
Learning Together
Collaboration allows everyone to gain new skills, from growing food to managing water systems. Such an approach strengthens both individual capabilities and community resilience.
Next Steps: Let’s Talk
This is an invitation to share your ideas, opportunities, dreams, and skills. Let’s discuss:
Where you want to go and why it resonates with you.
What you can contribute to a rural community.
Opportunities you’re aware of for collaborative living.
Whether you’re just starting your journey or already living rurally, your experiences and insights can inspire others. Together, we can make the transition to rural living not only achievable but truly meaningful.
Join us in an open discussion to share your thoughts and opportunities—your next chapter starts here!

Greetings… my name is Brett. Tomorow, Dec. 16th, I’ll be traveling to Arkansas to hopefully purchase a place in the mountains/country. I’m looking for someone who wants to go there too! I guess, just comment on this site, I’ll hopefully see it, and maybe we can make a plan. Thanks
Hi, can you please post the recording from Thursday evening? I want to share it with others. Thank you.
