PLANT IN AUSTIN
A ONE DAY TRAINING FOR CHURCH PLANTERS & CHURCHES DESIRING TO PLANT CHURCHES
Hello Friends & Fellow Church Planters!
It has been a while since we have sent out any updates related to church planting in Austin. However, we wanted to make sure that you are aware of an opportunity for church planters and aspiring church planting churches to attend a FREE one day training on Thursday, October 27th from 9-3 PM at Parkway Bible Church. Help spread the word to others that may be interested in this. Here are some more details so you can make plans to join in!....
If you are an aspiring church planter or lead a church that has a desire to plant a church in Greater Austin, you are invited to this one day training designed to provide practical equipping on how to do this. The day will include two training tracks, one for church planters and one for church leadership, and the interactive instruction will be done by church planters who have already worked through the process of planting a church in the Austin area. These practitioners will share insight from a place of personal engagement in this particular cultural context which will provide helpful wisdom and strategic steps for getting a church plant established.
The Association of Hill Country Churches (plantaustin.com) who has collectively participated in planting over 40 churches in Greater Austin is hosting this gathering, and is making this event FREE for those attending. In addition, snacks and lunch will be provided for the event attendees. To sign up please fill out the simple form for each person attending, and you will receive a free pass for the event. If you have questions, you can contact Nick Shock at [email protected].
