Evangelism through Rapid Saturation Church Planting
Church Planting
Harvesters
International Ministries believes that rapid, saturation church planting
remains the most effective way of doing Biblical Evangelism, that is making
disciples not just converts.
HIM addresses issues such as responsible evangelism, follow up and discipleship, training Pastors for new Churches without removing them from their churches and villages for extended periods , and helping develop a sustainable income for the new Pastor.
The HIM church planting model is producing wonderful results. A single Hub Church can produce as many as 40 churches over a 3-5 year period.
Hub Churches
Trained leaders are placed at the Hub Church.
They :
* Plant Churches
* Disciple new converts
* Identify potential leaders
* Train and mentor Pastors for the new Churches at the Hub Church
* Teach churches to become church-planting Churches.
HIM plants Churches in areas where there is a great hunger for the Gospel. In areas of Southern Africa there is a great harvest. In countries like Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Angola people are extremely receptive to the Gospel and churches are easily planted.
Opportunities exist for Churches, individual, denominations etc. to partner with us in planting a single Hub or to even a whole nation for Christ.
Outreaches can be organized to a specific Hub or group of Hubs for the sponsoring Church / Group. During these outreaches Churches are trained in evangelism and more Churches are planted.
Most Churches grow to between 100 and 200 members within 24 months.
