The Innkeepers Podcast

Katie Crawford has been passionate about supporting missionaries and pastoral care for years. She had a vision when she was 19 on a mission trip about a place where people focused on doing God's Kingdom work could come for refreshment. Sound familiar? Friends with the Prices for over 20 years, in fact they first met at a retreat for a youth group at the former Son Lodge which is now Sanctuary Inn. Katie used to dream with the Prices around her fire pit about a place where missionaries could come to be refreshed and restored to ministry. She started praying for the Lord to bring the funds and property to make this ministry happen. Katie has a B.S. from Multnomah Bible College in Bible and Theology with a minor in Women's Ministries. Katie has worked at Nike for 25 years. She is currently a Global Process Director. She loves working with international teams and visiting countries and cultures beyond the US. Steven and Joann Price have been in ministry for many years including time overseas and in local church ministry. For ten years they directed the residential ministry of the WorldView Center in Portland before starting up Sanctuary Inn in 2016.
