Converge PacWest

Being connected,working together with others in church planting is essential. No one should have to plant a church alone! The challenges, the struggles, the ups and downs, the need for input and feedback, and the joys, all make networking with others vital and necessary.

Planting Networks have contributed immensely to the success of Converge's church planting movement. No one plants alone! Every church planter is connected up with other pastors and planters through LEAD Team, or Church Planting Networks. These hands on learning environments make a world of difference for every church planter.

In addition, Converge seeks to connect church planter spouses together in ongoing sharing and learning environments. These have proven to be a huge resource for spouses who, along with their husbands, are engaged in front line ministry, extending and advancing the work of Jesus.

LEAD Teams

A LEAD Team is a gathering of relationally and missionally committed leaders from a geographical region or cultural affinity group.  Teams meet together regularly following the L.E.A.D. pathway:  Learning together, Encouraging one another, Achieving and Dreaming together on Mission    LEAD Teams provide a great opportunity for pastors and church planters to become a band of brothers; to walk together in the ministry journey.  Prayer, Bible study, sharing of personal and ministry joys and challenges, peer to peer coaching, and much more are part of what a leader will experience in a LEAD Team.  Seven regional or cultural LEAD Teams of Church Planters and Pastors currently meet 4-5 times each year across Converge PacWest for the purposes of expanding the Kingdom through starting new churches and strengthening existing churches and their leaders.
