Body of Believers
 We are a body of believers who love Jesus with all of our hearts! We are pulling together families to worship and fellowship with. We are aiming to build our own little town in rural Montana, complete with houses, a small clinic, and community church. We are in the infancy of our project and looking for more families. If you are interested please e-mail me! We currently reside just outside Atlanta, Georgia and are praying for the right rural land in Montana.
We are aiming to be completely self sufficient. Please let me know if you have any skills in your e-mail!
Orchards, green houses, farming, cattle, horses, chickens, fishing, aquaponics, sheep, etc.

Our names are John & April Saffle. Home numb. 573-996-9065. We currently live in Missouri, but are from southern ca. We left CA to escape the crime and give our kids a more Christian life.
