New York City Partnership Announced!
GO2 Church Planting is pleased to announce a new partnership with the Church Multiplication Alliance, Redeemer Church Planting Center, and Concerts of Prayer Greater New York. In its new Springboard Strategy of targeting Percept's 1,765 areas covering 95% of the U.S. population New York City represents Target Circle area #1 for density of population. More than ten million people live in this targeted 15 mile radius. Reaching this dense and diverse population requires multiple partnerships and alliances. The task is simply too great for any one group or church to succeed individually.
GO2 will be providing support and leadership for the Alliance, working closely with the Concerts of Prayer and its large network of churches to seek funding and strategic alliances and providing systems support for what is lacking in church planter identification and training.
The Strategic partners include –
Concerts of Prayer of Greater New York. www.copgny.org This organization under the direction of Dr. Mac Pier has been a uniting force for the churches of New York to collectively gather before God to seek His face for the city. Annual prayer gatherings, multiple prayer walks, and prayer meetings highlight the work of this good and effective ministry.
Redeemer Church Planting Center http://www.redeemer.com/about_us/church_planting/
is led by Rev. Terry Gyger and Rev. Mark Reynolds is the church planting arm of Redeemer Church led by Dr. Tim Keller. Redeemer has long been a city church focusing both within and outside of its denominational affiliations to increase a greater work force in reaching the city. Look for information on Dr. Keller and Redeemer in the June 2009 Christianity Today magazine.
Church Multiplication Alliance – The Alliance is comprised of those denominations and church planting agencies working in the city and who recognize that it takes many hands to get the evangelistic work completed.
Look soon on the GO2 web site for a listing of all our targeted areas, analysis of each, and ways in which you and your church can make a difference! Also coming soon will be opportunities for you to partner with several of our church planters with short term teams and visits to the Big Apple!
