Welcome to Pilgrim House, 

A home for creative discipleship, mission and artist residencies in Crete.

If you feel moved to financially support what God is doing at Pilgrim House, this is the story so far and some exciting opportunities ahead...(click and swipe for photos) Background 1.5 year of pilot:

We aim to support local and international artist missionaries to grow in their identity and intimacy with Jesus, by providing a unique space of rest and refuge in God’s presence, growing in trust, wonder and Holy fear of God through nature, monastic rhythms of spiritual disciplines and contemplative creative practices.

The atmosphere of grace encourages the prophetic imagination to come alive, and aims to spark pioneering ideas to build the Kingdom, as the artists are commissioned back into their communities and industries with a greater sense of courage and calling.

It can also be considered as a strategic international base between Europe and Africa to strengthen bold communicators of Jesus as the Way, Truth, and Life on the front-lines of culture. 

We have hosted regular prayer and worship gatherings, Sabbath feasts, and piloted long- and short-term artist residencies and retreats, inter-woven with incredible opportunities for evangelism on our doorstep. The house itself is a stunning, light-bathed 3 bedroom traditional house, with the Aegean sea at the end of the street! We are also blessed with a pomegranate tree in our garden, aloe vera, herbs and a little olive tree on its way, all echoing the abundance of God's goodness and glory. 

As most of our visitors are in a transition season, Proverbs 3:5-6 has been an anchoring verse. 

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”
