Websites like this provide only a very limited way of describing a truly awesome work of God. We give you the same invitation given to Andrew by Christ - "Come and See."
We invite you to walk around a Christian neighborhood filled with people who love Jesus Christ and who have dedicated their lives to His service. You will be able to listen to the happy shouts of children who grow up playing in a backyard full of friends and without fences. And if you happen to stumble on a
wrongdoing in the neighborhood, it won't take long before it is settled. The Alleluia family is "quick to forgive, and ask forgiveness." We seek to maintain committed, healthy relationships based upon the Love of Jesus Christ.
Although it is important to us that you are able to see first hand what God is doing, a major reason for inviting you is selfish on our part - we want to meet you! If your heart is stirring within you as you read this, we believe it is possible that God is issuing to you the call to Come and See. Please take this invitation seriously and contact us soon to make arrangements. For more info, give us a call at (706) 798-1882 or 1 (800) YES LORD (normal business hours are 9am-4pm Eastern time).
If you believe that God might be leading you and your Christian friends to build a Christian community or neighborhood, we will help you. In their hearts, many people hear the call to community; few have the blessing of actually building one. If you are one to whom God has said "Build!," congratulations! We will keep you in our prayers and welcome you into our homes and our hearts as you seek God's perfect will. |

What Is Christian Community? |
|
"I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." (John 10:10) Jesus Christ called Christians to live a full Christian life. Christian community is a place where people are led by the Spirit of God to make loving, faithful and accountable commitments to other Christians. It is the place where service, love and care, in the name of Jesus, become a way of life. Many people experience community through their church or para-church organization (Cursillo, Emmaus, Promise Keepers, etc).
This site is about Christians who have taken the next step of living a Christian Life together. Part of the fullness of our life comes from these important features of Christian community living as practiced daily by members of Alleluia: Commitment - Members of Alleluia Community are committed first to

Thankfulness For Our Back Door Living |
|
Written by Janet Hatfield

Back door living has meant different things to me growing up. As a child, our back door on the farm was where you came and went with your farm boots on, so as not to get the rest of the house dirty. As I grew older, it was where friends would come and go without the dogs barking at the possibility of a stranger at the door. Still, as a college student, it was where I slipped in and out late at night without disturbing the sleeping members of my family. I believe, however, that the back door living referred to here does not require an actual back door, but a state of mind.
I am very thankful for our back door living mindset in Alleluia. In a world where neighbors are viewed more as an interruption than a blessing, and fences are erected to keep everybody in their own space, Alleluia strives to be an alternate society. Our Covenant states, “…He has destroyed our isolation and joined us together…” Thank you, Jesus, that we can live side by side and help each other grow in holiness. What an awesome mindset!
