Church Planting Residency
Our next cohort begins September 6, 2023.
The deadline to apply is July 15.
We are excited about God’s call on your life to plant a church in Queens, and we would like to partner with you. Queens is a unique place with a diversity of ethnicity, economics, religion, politics, and culture. Our residency will help prepare you for the theological and practical competencies needed for such a diverse place. But, most importantly, it will give you a relational community of other pastors and ministry leaders to walk alongside you (and your family) as you prepare to plant your church. This is a paid residency that will help support you as you train to church plant. If you are interested in taking the next step to participate in this program, complete the inquiry form below, and we will be in touch.
Our Training is…
Relational
It has been said, “the Kingdom of God runs on the rails of relationships.” We believe that is true in your church plant and your training. Your training will flow from relationships with pastors and ministry leaders in Queens.
Experiential
Learning excels when you are putting into practice the truths that are being taught. Evaluated experience is a valuable teacher. You will experience and get to serve in 2-4 different churches throughout Queens and then will be coached to learn from those experiences and implement them into your own church plant.
Contextual
Queens is the most diverse county in the world, with unique challenges and opportunities. This calls for unique contextual training to minister to the cultural diversity. We will coach you on best practices to evangelize and serve the neighborhood in which you plant.
