There are families paying $30K per year too, so this expense can get really large.Another option I hear discussed a fair amount is Christian Healthcare Ministries, which is a cost sharing coop style plan.

When I got started in real estate I was a full time student in Columbus at OSU, working 40 hours a week, newly married, and serving in my college ministry, all while rehabbing a house.You can do as much as you make time for!

In addition there's a local ministry school that draws students from around the world, 2,000 or so, and they rent room space. 

As we liked his deceased dad, our late tenant, we tried to look out for his kid and we found a spot for him in a residential drug rehab run by a local ministry. 

I rented bed space to students at a local ministry school in Redding, CA, and it worked out ok.

., on 20 acres out to students at a ministry school, but there was only 2 to a room.

BSSM Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry takes up a huge number of rental units in apartments, homes, etc. as they are not required by our local planners to provide housing for students. 

We also support serval overseas missionaries as well as we have made contributions to other ministries at the same. 

That being said, I am investing in real estate in order to:- Enable my wife to not have to work if she wants to- Provide for my family- Be able to give very generously - Be able to serve in pastoral ministry without needing a salaryThat's me in a nutshell.

We have a church prison ministry that goes into the prison in Jessup.
