Planting a New Church?
Jesus says, “ask the Lord of the Harvest to send workers into the harvest” (Luke 10:2b).
We pray daily for God to send workers into the mission fields of Dallas. If you sense God leading you to explore starting a church in the Dallas area, we’d consider it an honor–and a potentially answered prayer!–to speak with you.
Whether you are just beginning to consider the idea or you already have a group meeting, contact one of us at 214-319-1164 or use the contact forms below.
