SKYLINE RESIDENCY – Host Home

At Skyline Church, we have the unique and exciting opportunity to train up and young, high-quality leaders through our Church Residency program. Our desire is to provide a practical learning experience for the resident that will prepare him or her for successful, long-term ministry in the church.

One aspect of this development is providing a healthy, positive place for a resident to live through our Host Family program. Would you prayerfully consider hosting a resident for the duration of their residency?

Host Home FAQ's

What does being a host home mean?

What do I need to be a host home?

Provide a private room (or basement, mother-in-law suite, guest house, etc.) with common amenities (bed, bedding, dresser, closet, etc.). This space should be set aside solely for the resident for the duration of their stay with you. Access to a bathroom with a high level of privacy is also required.
Provide a clean and safe living environment. We don’t expect a home to be perfectly clean all of the time (of course). However, we would expect the host to keep a house that is clean the majority of the time and secured in a way where the resident feels comfortable and safe (the resident will be given similar expectations of cleanliness and respect).
Not expect payment for rent and utilities. Offering to host a resident free of charge helps the resident not be burdened with that substantial cost of living and helps the church financially as well.
Provide an adequate internet connection.

How can I support their residency journey?

Engage and connect with the resident relationally. A positive host family experience can play a key role in a resident’s development. Hosts are encouraged to regularly connect with their resident—invite them to join you for a meal, take them out for coffee or ice cream, bring them along to a movie, etc. None of these things are a requirement or obligation. A healthy respect for both the host’s and resident’s boundaries and personal space will always be preserved.
