Our church planting process

Establishing a church in an unreached people group requires a long-term vision. We work by coming alongside local churches and their global workers at every stage, providing the resources and support necessary to equip church planters for the mission God has entrusted to them.

To sustain the church planters and their long-term objectives we promote a collaborative structure for ministry.
