Church planting is a joyful way to bring the gospel to a community. We are in the process of doing that by replanting a church in West Conshohocken, PA. The original church closed earlier this year and now through a partnership of the leaders and congregations of Core Creek Community Church and Hatboro Community Church, we have started the process of re-planting the church.
There are three phases to this project.
Phase 1: Repair, paint, clean and update the building. (This is the phase we are currently in).
Phase 2: Make connections with the community and begin holding Bible studies and worship services. (We are making connections at present while we prepare the building, but this will become our primary focus after the building is ready).
Phase 3: Prepare for permanent pastoral leadership. (We are currently mentoring a pastor in training with the hope that he will take over this work once the first two phases are complete).
To accomplish this work, we will need to raise funds. Thankfully, the Lord is already showing us that His people are willing to support efforts like this, so we are encouraged. At present, we are requesting others to get involved by becoming monthly supporters or by making a one time gift.
Would you be willing to help? Would your church consider making this project one of the mission projects they support?
At present, we have received a total of $16,050 in financial support from two ministry boards and three churches. Ideally, we would love to raise enough to be able to fund this ministry well into Phase 3, but we'll be grateful for any help you could give us.
Please know that we won't waste your money nor will we continue to ask for support if requesting outside support stops being necessary. Our goal is to plant a healthy, self-supporting church in West Conshohocken, but for that to happen, we need believers from all over to rally behind us and support this work to bring the gospel to this growing community.
