Church Planting Task Force

in

The goal of the Church Planting Task Force is to release healthy, fully functioning churches which in turn can plant healthy reproducing churches.

 

Our team of church plant coordinators (CPCs), who are also local church pastors, identify, assess, train, deploy and coach church planters in every region of the country.

OUR VISION FOR CHURCH PLANTING

As a movement, we want to plant churches which exhibit the following traits:

  • A commitment to worship and serve the Triune God revealed in Jesus Christ
  • A focus on building communities of faith that worship the Lord in the beauty of His holiness
  • A desire to grow as Spirit-filled communities that hear - and obey - His voice
  • A compassion that leads to training and equipping the church community to serve the poor, the lost, and the sick
  • An outward-focused passion that goes out in the power of the Spirit to do the works of the Kingdom of God, making disciples, planting reproducing churches, and taking the gospel to the nations

NEW CHURCH PLANTING ONLINE INITIAL ASSESSMENT

The online Church Planting Candidate Assessment is designed to help provide potential planters with an initial indicator of their readiness to plant a church. It does this by evaluating more than 20 different characteristics we feel are important for church planters.

As a potential planter, you can access the online assessment at http://cpca.lifeway.com. Once on the homepage you will be asked to purchase a passcode which costs $29 and provide your basic information. The CPCA consists of four parts designed to evaluate your spiritual gifts, spiritual formation, risk factor analysis and a basic church planter assessment. Expect to set aside approximately one hour to complete the assessment.

Upon completion, results will be available for download and emailed to our national church planting office. A Vineyard church planting staff member will contact you after completing the online assessment to share with you what the next steps are. We encourage you to share your results with your pastor as they can be praying and supporting you along your church planting journey.

If you need further information please don’t hesitate to contact us. We want to support you in your calling in any way that we can. For more information on church planting please email churchplanting@duluthvineyard.org

CHURCH PLANTING RESIDENCY PROGRAM at VINEYARD COLUMBUS

The Church Planting Residency Program at Vineyard Columbus exists to identify, train, equip, and release church planters by bringing together the best church planting practices that we've learned from having planted 24 churches. The Program is a year-long, intensive leadership development, spiritual growth, theological training, and ministry skill development experience at Vineyard Columbus.

As a Resident, you will be given the opportunity to learn from some of the most experienced and creative pastors who have a successful track record in church multiplication at Vineyard Columbus. You will have the opportunity to participate in the day-to-day activities of church staff culture, develop yourself as a leader, expand your theological education, deepen your Vineyard values, and sharpen your church planting skills and plan for the launch of your new church.

It our deepest desire to see every Vineyard church become active in planting passionate, mature, and reproducing churches. If you are a Vineyard church looking to plant, Vineyard Columbus would be thrilled to discuss ways that we can partner with you.
