In April, the Regional Pastors organized an online Church Planting Summit, streamed online from Lutheran Brethren Seminary using their Adobe Connect software. The seminars were organized to encourage the vision for church planting in North America, hearing from various church planters about God's call in their lives.

The seminars are available online for streaming or downloading on the CLB Network website.

The seminars included:

• "Basics of church planting - Why plant churches?"
• "Redeveloping a missionary mindset for North American Churches"
• "Models of Church Planting"
• "What makes a church planter?"
• "Financing church plants"

Let’s get involved in church planting, however that might look for your congregation! There are many in our communities who do not have a faith community. Let’s reach North America together!
