We know what you’re thinking, “A ministry has a place like this?” Hey, we get it, the renovation of this historic Woodcroft Estate has truly left Ichthus with a gem – far more beautiful than we could have imagined. To clarify for all of the naysayers, this gorgeous property was paid for in full (including its renovation) by a local Christian who then donated the entire estate with the agreement that Ichthus would work to put it to use as a ministry. Even better, the residents who lease rooms in the Estate pay rent to cover the expense of utilities.
With renovations just being finished, we are so thankful that God has already begun to use this historic home as a valuable asset to His Kingdom, and to begin to accomplish Ichthus’ goals of creating substance-free and purpose driven entertainment as well as networking opportunities for young professionals in the Flint area.
This project includes much more than just a home. The Estate’s guest house acts as housing for speakers, artists, and missionaries visiting local churches or community events. The common quarters get plenty of use, too. Ichthus hosts a Bible study every Thursday night, prayer and worship events, numerous meetings and church functions, as well as times of fellowship throughout the week.

It is our mission to provide a healthy environment of accountability and spiritual growth for men of God to excel as great husbands and spiritual leaders. The idea is, we provide the opportunity to live in a beautiful “mansion” full of amenities, for the price that you would pay to share a basic apartment with a roommate. With a game room, coffee bar, hot tub, big screen TV with surround sound, fireplaces galore, and plenty of room for entertaining, residents couldn’t come close to a home like this for the price.
Residents must sign an accountability agreement and lease.
