The Church Planter's Circle
Thank you for Joining the Church Planters Circle
Being a part of the Church Planters Circle is a great joy and great oppurtunity to see your church involved with planting churches all around the world.


What can you Expect?
With the Church Planters Circle Event you can expect an event with opportunity to get your church involved in planting churches around the world. They'll be inspired by the sharing of the the work happening in the field and learn how to give, so that their money can grow in the kingdom.
In this website you'll find the helpful resources you need to prep for your Church Planters Circle Event and how to get your congregation excited about planting churches together!
Executive Summary
A Church Planters Circle event is an opportunity for a church to gather around God’s mission of making disciples and planting churches among communities around the world. Rather than focusing on an organization, the event centers on what God is doing through His people and invites the congregation to consider how they can participate in that work.
In the weeks leading up to the event, the church builds awareness, invites the congregation, gathers volunteers, and promotes the opportunity through Sunday announcements and social media. On the day of the event, the church creates an engaging environment where people can hear stories, experience the work of church planting, and learn how they can personally participate.
The event culminates with an invitation for the congregation to join Church Planters Circle by giving together each month toward the planting of churches and making of disciples around the world. CPC provides a simple way for a church to participate collectively in God’s mission and help bring the gospel to communities where there is little or no access to a local church.
