Church Planting

Grace Church Planting Ministry

[meet our church planters below]

Our vision is to plant healthy, Christ-exalting, gospel-centered, and reproducing churches throughout North Carolina.

We believe that no single church can serve all the needs or reach all the people in any given area or town. So, we need more churches! One of the most exciting and encouraging ways God works is through church planting. It is central to God’s mission and finds its roots in scripture as one of the most effective ways to reach the lost and draw them into life in Christ. God’s Kingdom is growing, and we are thrilled to be part of what He is doing! We seek to plant churches that reflect our DNA:

Theologically-thoughtful
Word-focused
Missional
Kingdom-minded
Relational
Grace-oriented
