What does funding look like for new churches in the Northwest Conference?
We typically fund new churches on a multi-year appropriation schedule that involves funding from our national office in Chicago, another stream of funding from the Northwest Conference, a third steam of funding from a parent or partnering churches, and church planter fund-raising. The reality is that every church is different in context, so each new church will be unique in how it is resourced. The level and length of funding depends on many variables that will be considered as the project is being developed.
