At Teamness, we are on a mission to provide restful, no-cost getaways for pastors and their spouses who dedicate their lives to serving their communities. Through our Pastor Getaway program, we offer a break from the weight of ministry so these couples can find renewal, joy, and peace in a spotless, private, comfortable and peaceful environment under the care of encouraging and discerning hosts. If you have a short-term rental, RV, guest home, or similar space and a heart to bless pastors, we invite you to explore our Teamness Affiliate Host program.

Why Join as an Affiliate Host?

Being a pastor is both a privilege and a profound challenge. Many church leaders face high levels of emotional, spiritual, and physical stress, which can take a toll on their well-being. Recent studies show that nearly one-third of pastors in the U.S. have considered stepping down from ministry. By offering your space and your care, you can be a sanctuary for these dedicated leaders, giving them a chance to rest, reconnect, and recharge.
