With you every step
We provide a clear pathway for you to plant a new church. Each step has been strategically designed to improve your success so more people will have the opportunity to accept Jesus.
Pre-launch
After some conversations together, you'll have the opportunity to attend ºÚÁÏÀúÊ·'s highly-trusted Church Planting Assessment Center. During the assessment, trained assessors will help you discern your calling, fit in ministry and capacity to be the lead pastor on a planting team. Next, we’ll outline partnership details, discuss your salary and explain what church planting grants you will receive.
We’ll teach you how to raise funds, recruit your launch team and fill out the legal forms to establish your church as a 501c3 non-profit. We can even help with the creative aspects of your church plant such as naming, branding, logo development and getting your website up and running.
