CHRISTIAN SHARE ACCOMMODATION
CANBERRA / QUEANBEYAN

We understand moving to a new city for new opportunities or studies can be a difficult prospect. Finding accommodation is difficult at the best of times. Not know who you will live with or whether your values align add to such.

As such, we started "Christian share Accommodation Canberra" to provide a platform to help connect people for the primary purpose of Share housing. It is important to note, we don't provide accommodation and do not possess any, we simply create platforms and connections for like minded Christians to consider their share housing opportunities in Canberra, Queanbeyan and the Capital region.

Additionally we would encourage you to check out Church, Divergent Church Canberra and Queanbeyan (as do other Church communities) has a strong Young adult and University community often looking for flat mates in Canberra. 
 

As a Christian who shares a house you need to look for compatible housemates who respect your faith and lifestyle.

Living in shared accommodation creates wonderful opportunities for making new friends while reducing living expenses and finding companions to experience life alongside. Locating suitable housemates proves difficult for Christians because of specific requirements they need to meet. Your ideal living space should be comfortable for practicing your faith and sharing your values while developing a supportive community. These tips will guide you in identifying share house mates whose lifestyles and beliefs match yours.

1. Be Clear About Your Priorities

It's crucial to establish your requirements before you begin the search for a share house. Do you prefer housemates with the same theological convictions as yours? Identify what you expect about shared house practices, church attendance, alcohol consumption, and guests.

 

Expressing your values clearly will enable you to connect with people who have similar beliefs.

2. Search in the Right Places

General rental sites such as Flatmates.com.au and Gumtree provide numerous options but to find Christian housemates you should explore faith-based communities.

Search for Facebook groups like Canberra Christian Share Housing and other groups located in your region.

It should come as no surprise that Church should be a good place, but Church should not also be a place where we seek community only for this purpose. 

3. Communicate Openly and Honestly

After identifying potential housemates initiate an open discussion regarding expectations. Ask questions like:

What methods do you use to resolve disagreements when sharing living space with others?

What does your daily routine look like?

Are you open to organising Bible studies or prayer meetings at your place?

How do you manage cleanliness and shared responsibilities in shared living conditions?

Honest conversations early on prevent future misunderstandings.

4. Seek commonalities 

Living alongside fellow Christians provides encouragement yet faith by itself does not solve every issue. Seek roommates who practice similar life habits and exhibit financial accountability along with mutual respect. A Christian roommate who fails to maintain cleanliness or consistently pay rent on time can create significant living challenges.

5. Pray for Guidance

Finally, invite God into your decision.

Seek divine wisdom and discernment during the housemate selection process. Remember, iron sharpens iron, it won't always be easy but growth and development always comes with challenges. 

The best housemate will support your spiritual and personal development.


Good housemates require time to find but clear priorities and open communication combined with God's guidance will lead you to build a peaceful and spiritually uplifting home. Join Divergent Church when you need a faith-based community to meet people who share your beliefs.
