Let's fund the mission, not just the budget.

Why I Do What I Do

For almost 30 years, I served in pastoral ministry, helping build teams that launched churches, expanded campuses, and created worship environments that invited people into a deeper journey of faith.

In 2021, I co-founded the nonprofit Thrive 10:10, where we developed the Pathway to Thriving—a framework designed to help people move from survival to stability and abundance.

Through that work, I saw how powerful financial strength can be for ministry. Today, through PastorVicky.com, I help pastors and church leaders develop multiple streams of income so their churches can expand their reach and multiply their impact in their communities.

"My good friend Vicky Kelley opened my mind to understand that we as the Church today need to diversify how we reach people for Jesus and how we fund that work.  These are not side projects.  They are the future of our impact as the Church." 

The church has been investing in forming partnerships with helping organizations, and together investing in prayer and discernment for what God had divinely in mind for God’s people in that region. The first and second revelations, Ruth’s Boutique and Thrive 10:10, was met with a, “Thank you, God. What’s next?” ~Rev Cara Stultz-Costello
