Strategic Church Planting

Planting a new church is an exciting and rewarding experience. However, it can also be very stressful and lonely, and often requires a lot of hard work, especially in the initial stages.

Drawing on years of experience, having coached and conducted research for 130+ new church plants, CV will work alongside church planters and denominations to ensure that they have all the necessary information and tools in order to make the best decisions for a smooth start.

• Church planting long-range planning.
• Choosing a target neighborhood, city, area, or people group for the new church.
• Locating a specific location for the new church site.
• Choosing a name for the new church (make sure no one has the church name you desire).
• First sermon series suggestions.
• Community research and demographic reports.
• Community focus groups.
• Spiritual analysis of the area: churches, cults, occult groups, and world religions in the area.
• Core group development.
• Outreach plans.
• Partnership opportunities.
• Community promotion ideas and marketing for the new church.
• Church planting resources: models, books, etc.

Many church planters, churches, and denominations make CV their first stop in the church planting process.

Many church planters find it helpful to have a map of their ministry area. City Vision can produce these maps for church planters.

Rev. Dr. John A. Mayer and other City Vision team members have worked with  130+ new church plants from 73 denominations.
