18 Inch Journey
Campus Campaign
Current Campaigns & Goals
Our vision for the 18 Inch Journey Campus Campaign is to develop our campus—A Place for the Heart—to host more guests on our property, provide resources for their deep spiritual formation, and equip our staff to serve a generation in a greater capacity. Currently, we are raising money for 3 New Cabins and Art Education Supplies. Click below to learn more, see our completed projects, and view the long-term vision for our campus.
$360,000 - 3 New Cabins
We are dreaming into building three new cabins so that future guests can have in-house bathrooms and live in these beautiful loft-style cabins.
$15,000 - creative Education Supplies
We have a passion for the arts and have seen the deeply transformative ways that God can meet the human heart through the creative process. These funds will go toward much needed equipment for our creative studios.
We believe discipleship can change the world.
The mission of the Cageless Birds is to respond to the commission of Jesus and make disciples of all nations. One of the ways we do this is through our 18 Inch Journey discipleship programs focused on spiritual formation. We do all of this at “A Place for the Heart,” our 52-acre campus in North Carolina.
Over the past 10 years, our staff, schools, camps, and retreats have nearly doubled in size. Our vision for the 18 Inch Journey Campus Campaign is to develop our campus to host more people on our property, provide resources for their deep spiritual formation, and equip our staff to serve a generation in a greater capacity. Below you will find what we are dreaming into for our campus and ministry and the goals that have been completed with your help and support. This page will always be updated with our most immediate needs. We invite you to partner with us as we expand our campus and continue to grow the Kingdom of God.
