Multiplication

Multiplying Spiritual Leaders & Churches

WHO WE ARE

The church multiplication team exists to serve Fellowship and partner churches in the multiplication of leaders and church plants committed to changing the heart and soul of Northwest Arkansas and the world.

WHERE WE ARE HEADED

CHURCH PLANTING

The Training Center will come alongside congregations and strategic partners to plant churches through producing and releasing the next generation of spiritual leaders in Northwest Arkansas and beyond.

RESIDENCY

Our mission is to produce ministry leaders through an intensive one-year residency program that focuses on developing ministry skills, knowledge, character, and passion. Learn more about the residency program here.

HOW WILL WE GET THERE

The church multiplication team provides the pathway for preparing and equipping church planting teams for multiplication. The pathway consists of three phases designed to develop church planting teams from each congregation.
