<p class="mt20 mb0" align="justify"><strong>Offering accommodation</strong></p>
<p class="mt5 mb10" align="justify">Those with accommodation to offer should place Offered Accommodation adverts. You can change your advert, suspend it, and receive messages from those who respond to it. Adding photos is key and helps to get the best response.</p>
<p class="mt10 mb0" align="justify">Those placing Offered accommodation adverts can choose that they would prefer someone who, if asked, could provide a recommendation from a current or previous church staff member.</p>
<p class="mt20 mb0" align="justify"><strong>Finding accommodation</strong></p>
<p class="mt5 mb20" align="justify">Those looking for accommodation should place a Wanted Accommodation advert. Once a Wanted is placed Offered adverts matching automatically highlight matching Offered Accommodation adverts and enables several other features of CFS. CFS offers those looking for accommodation the option to choose <b>"Pal-Up"</b> in their Wanted advert, which indicates they are willing to connect with others with similar accommodation needs to look for accommodation together.</p>

<p class="mt5 mb10" align="justify"><span class="mt10 mb0">Offered an Wanted accommodation adverts posted for a period of 12 weeks or less are highlighted as being <strong>short-term</strong> adverts. This can be useful for all sorts of short-term requirements, and can be used for finding house-sitters too. There is not a separate category for house-sitting; those offering house-sitting opportunities or services should instead put that detail in the description of their advert. Short-term adverts can be filtered for in searches.</span> </p>

<!-- <p align="justify" class="mt0">If our members support us, from late 2008 a small charge will be introduced for posting accommodation offered adverts; £2 for Flat/House Share and Family Share ads, and £10 for Whole Place ads. Flat/House Share and Family Share ads will remain free for those who are unable to pay.</p>
-->
<p class="mt10" align="justify">Christian Flatshare was founded following the experience of those moving to London, who shared a house with others who shared their faith, and were encouraged by the faith community - which offered encouragement, accountability and support. CFS was created to help others make similar connections, and is a resource for church communities (in the UK, US, CA, AU, IE and SA). </p>
<p class="mt20 mb5" align="justify"><strong>Connecting with the local church </strong></p>
<p class="mt0 mb10" align="justify">Christian Flatshare helps accommodation seekers to connect with a local church community, and for churches to connect with those moving to their area.</p>
<p align="justify">Christian Flatshare can be used by members of a church to share their accommodation notices with those inside and outside their congregation, which can help connect them with those moving to the same area.</p>
<p align="justify">Where one lives is likely to be an influence in choosing which church to attend: by engaging in the accommodation process, a church leader can help facilitate the growth of the church in the immediate community. CFS sees accommodation as a doorway to the local church community. </p>
