Church Planting Partnerships

 

Lifechurch Austria

Gianni & Angela Geata

As a young couple in their early twenties, Gianni & Angela Gaeta followed God’s call to Austria in the late 1980s. Austria is one of the most secular countries in Europe with only a tiny percentage of its nine million residents who would call themselves followers of Jesus. After launching the first church in their living room in the city of Leoben, they later moved to Vienna as a hub for what would be a new movement of churches planted all over the country. Fourteen churches later they are doing anything but slowing down, and are now pushing forward to see a local church launched in each of Austria’s seventy-nine towns.

4 Rivers Church - Durham New Hampshire

Wes & Kasey Dillon

We feel so fortunate to be starting a church in an area we love. Along with our 3 children, we have made our home in the Oyster River community. Living on the seacoast for 15 years, we have come to understand the people and the culture, the struggles and the joys, the needs and the blessings. The desire to be a part of a church that goes into the community and loves everyone like Jesus, with no strings attached, became undeniable. So, we prayed and God answered. Four Rivers was born.

We believe the hope of Jesus is honest and real, and His love transforms everything. It is our privilege to build a church alongside friends, from all stages and places in their faith journey. It is an honor to create a place that feels like home, to everyone.

Stadia Church Planting

Stadia’s mission is to plant churches that intentionally care for children. Why? Because as more churches close their doors, fewer people are experiencing the life-changing hope of Jesus. Stadia prepares leaders to start healthy churches that intentionally reach the next generation of believers, spreading the hope of Jesus farther than ever before.

And we won’t stop until every child has a church.
