Resourcing Church Planting
Together, we can equip and deploy teams of workers to harvest different parts of our region through one of the most church planting resource-rich organizations, The Southern Baptist Convention.
Join us in accomplishing the Great Commission by multiplying churches. This is the “next best place” that needs the hands, feet, and pockets of everyone in our Association.

The Need for Church Planting
Why church planting?
Because the majority of the people we look in the eye every day live without the hope of salvation. They are, as Jesus said, “harassed and helpless.” Jesus had compassion on the people, and he told his disciples to pray for more workers to bring the Good News of the Kingdom to the people.
Matthew 9:36
“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.”
IF we take the time to notice, we don’t have to look far to find pockets of people who desperately need the gospel of Jesus. These include the practicing Hindu Indian family down the street. The Arab young woman clothed in hijab. The Asian neighbor who can’t speak a word of English. The disillusioned college student who embraces Eastern spiritualism instead. The gay couple who feel isolated by the church and unwanted by God. The young couple living the American dream without any idea who Jesus really is.
These are the people God has brought to our very doorstep.
Unreached. Unchurched. Dechurched. Disillusioned.
Let us have the compassion Jesus had and pray and raise up more laborers for the harvest to make disciples and plant churches!
