Churches: Start Two

The vision is for EFCA churches and church plants to start two new churches; one church to replace themselves (because no church lives forever) and another church to advance the Kingdom. The myth is you have to be a large church to reproduce. The reality is you have to have a broken heart for your mission field to reproduce. Depending upon the size of the existing church, our EFCA churches are using many models to multiply.

• Pioneer plant
• Multisite
• Daughter Plant
• Multiethnic
• Partnership model of two smaller parent churches
• Church in a church
• House church
• Lay team planting

To equip churches with the tools for multiplication, a  reproducing clinic, church planting centers, church planting residency and other similar tools are being developed.
