U.S. church planting is undergoing a striking transformation.
In the past, church planters were often Anglo, male, and seminary trained. But today, the new faces of church planters reflect the broader range of our nation’s diversity. This fresh wave of leaders is multifaceted and highly innovative, driven by passion and creativity to reach underserved communities in our own backyards.
now. MULTIPLY
The Alliance is committed to planting over 50 new churches in the next year by training and equipping church planters and helping established Alliance churches develop partnering and planting postures. Will you consider being a new face in Alliance church planting?
The stage is set for a more inclusive, impactful, and sustainable church landscape, both for our congregations and the communities they serve. We envision a Christ-centered movement of local churches that plant multiplying churches until the Great Commission is complete.
