What church planters are saying about Converge
We planted with Converge because they literally have generations of experience in reproducing gospel-centered churches. Their church planting strategy strikes the perfect balance of bold faith with wise planning. The evidence of both runs through every component of that strategy—from the assessment process, coaching, networking and funding. Even now, as my church plant reaches healthy metrics, we’re being prepared and coached toward sending out our first daughter church.
Planting a church is one of the most challenging and rewarding things I have ever done, and I don’t know where we would be without Converge North Central. They helped me navigate tough situations that could have stalled the work, connected me with other pastors and planters and have given me the opportunity to invest in others. Converge has been with me every step of the way.
Converge has been with me on every step of my church planting journey—from learning how to raise support, building a launch team and publicly launching the church. Our church would not have had the success it’s having today without the expertise from Converge.

The process
Fill out the form below
Church planting starts with a regional relationship. When you reach out, we’ll connect you with someone in the region where you hope to plant—usually within one business day.
Let us sow into you
Between helping you develop local relationships and connecting you with regional and national resources, we’ll help confirm your calling and develop a custom plan through launch. But our support doesn’t end there.
Let’s commit to do this together
We’re not just about helping you plant a church. We also are here to help your church thrive for generations. And we want to help you remain strong, gospel-faithful and connected to brothers and sisters like you.
