Michelle Shaver’s story is a true testament to the power of faith and community. When she first arrived at Charis Bible College, she was heartbroken to discover that many of her younger classmates were without a place to call home. Michelle knew that she had to act, but without the financial means to do so, she put her faith in God and waited for His provision. That provision came in the form of Alan, who Michelle met at a Thanksgiving dinner. After witnessing the miraculous healing power of God through Michelle and her classmates, Alan was moved to give back and sow into God’s kingdom. He purchased three homes in Woodland Park, Colorado, which Michelle used to launch the Woodland Park Housing Ministry. With her newfound role as a property manager and business owner, Michelle put her business skills to the test and successfully ran the ministry thanks to all she had learned at the Charis 3rd year business school. The demand for housing was so high that Alan purchased an additional seven homes to accommodate all the students in need. And with the help of another Charis Bible College graduate, Cheri Blair, the ministry continues to provide housing to students who would otherwise be without a place to live. Michelle’s inspiring story is a testament to the power of community, faith, and perseverance. Through her unwavering belief in God’s provision and her dedication to helping her fellow Charis students, she has made a lasting impact on the lives of countless students at Charis Bible College. The rapid growth of Charis Bible College has Charis students like Michelle Shaver and Cheri Blair working hard to facilitate the need.

I was seeing Kara students who had left

their homes left their jobs left their

Apartments left the Comforts that they

had to come here and serve God and they

weren’t living in a kingdom of God they

were living on the streets and in

Walmart in their cars I get calls every

day from around the world of people

saying hey I know God’s calling me to

come I’ve got to come and I’m trusting

God but I know housing is an issue there

by following God’s word to let down his

net Peter caught so many fish that his

vessel alone could not contain it

he needed more Sailors more boats and

stronger Nets just to stay afloat

as Fishers of Men We at Andrew Wommack

ministries and Karis Bible College have

a similar problem

we actually had

550 people who applied to be students

who didn’t show up and we called them up

and followed up to ask why they didn’t

come and 550 there was actually more

than that but 550 people said that the

number one thing that kept them from

being at Karis was lack of dorms lack of

accommodations with more students coming

out to Colorado than ever before and

less homes available in Woodland Park

Andrew has made his student housing

project a top priority but as he lays

the concrete and raises the walls the

Holy Spirit has brought along helpers

the pitch in with the catch Fishers of

Men like third year business school

graduate Michelle shaver who started the

Woodland Park Housing Ministry when she

noticed that many of our young students

couldn’t afford Colorado’s housing what

really struck home to me was our friend

Stuart who came from Massachusetts I had

been couch surfing

trusting God one place to the next I had

no plan B and I had two bags and two

hundred dollars I had a friend who just

dropped me at the Walmart it’s the only

place it’s 24 hours I stayed there

overnight I would sit I just sat on the

bench there in the foyer area where the

the heating ducts come down and make it

a little warmer I’d been trying to save

enough money trying to find a place but

the rent so expensive and it’s hard when

you come here with 200 I was talking to

God and just saying God how can this

can’t be your will because I know the

prosperity message of the Bible and I

know that God wants us all to be living

in the kingdom of God on this Earth

Michelle answered the call to start the

Woodland Park Housing Ministry a

non-profit that would buy homes in

Teller County and rent them exclusively

to our students for a fraction of the

market value but to purchase multiple

properties in the middle of a housing

boom Michelle needed money and lots of

it

God provided him the most unexpected

places we decided to have a Thanksgiving

party here we invited all our Charis

friends and I happened to invite my

sister and she decided to bring her

boyfriend the gentleman’s name was Alan

ramp report and he came to her dinner he

was at a older man in his 60s and not a

believer

and so he’s sitting here at this

Thanksgiving feast you know with all of

these Kara students talking about Jesus

and healing and all of these things that

he’s totally on

unaware of and Alan was listening to it

and he knew he was missing out on

something so as he’s listening he’s

thinking about his back his back issues

and you know had surgeries and still in

a lot of pain well after dinner everyone

was getting ready to leave

and Alan piped up and said

you said you were gonna pray for me for

my healing and they go oh yeah that’s

right let’s pray so they prayed for him

for his back
