It is not the end. (English)

There are places where life seems to end… but for God, those are the very places where everything begins.

Tetelestai – Come Home was born with that same purpose:
to take spaces of ruin and turn them into places of restoration.
We believe in God’s power to raise up those who have lost everything
and to do it with order, commitment, and faith.

That’s why we’re working diligently on preparing the house
the first stage of this project that will mark the beginning of a story of hope.

In 1 Samuel 22, David fled to the Cave of Adullam.
It wasn’t a palace — it was a dark, damp, forgotten refuge.
But there, in that hidden place, God began one of His deepest works.

Scripture says:

“All those who were in distress or in debt or discontented gathered around him, and he became their commander. About four hundred men were with him.”
(1 Samuel 22:2)

They were broken men — rejected, weary, and burdened.
But in that place of darkness, God formed an army.
Not an army of violence, but of faithfulness, loyalty, and courage.

The cave became a classroom; pain became training; defeat became purpose.
From that group of broken souls, God raised up David’s mighty men,
men who would later help establish His kingdom.

That’s how the Lord works —
He doesn’t start His greatest stories in thrones, but in caves.
Where others see ruin, He sees redemption.
Where others see waste, He sees destiny.

Today, God is still raising up men and women from their own “Caves of Adullam.”
People trapped in addiction, loneliness, or despair — forgotten by the world,
yet still called by name by Christ.

That’s exactly what we seek to do through Tetelestai – Come Home:
to create a space where the weary can find direction,
where those in spiritual debt can find freedom,
and where the broken in spirit can be transformed into warriors of the Kingdom.

We are now in our first phase
preparing and adapting the house that God has provided
to become a center of restoration.

Every brick, every repair, every chair and every bed represents a story that hasn’t yet begun but one that God is already writing.

Your support doesn’t just help build a house it helps rebuild lives. Every gift, no matter the size, is a seed planted in the soil where God turns caves into homes, and the wounded into warriors.

Come Home and Help Others Do the Same

We invite you to be part of this beginning. Pray, share, and — if it’s within your reach, donate to help us prepare the Tetelestai Restoration Home.

Our commitment is clear: to do this with transparency, order, and purpose, because the work of God deserves excellence.

“From the cave, God raised up an army.
From this house, He will raise up restorers.”
