“Let’s keep doing what Southern Baptists do best when we’re at our best: seek first the kingdom, stick together as a family, and think multiplication.
The fields are ready. The moment is urgent. And the story God is writing through a sending people is far from finished.” -@NoahOldham
Let’s get to work!
“For us to see a change in the trajectory of North America, we need thousands of churches joining in the mission together.” 🗣️ @vancepitman
The harvest is plentiful—let’s multiply together!

REACHING THE NATIONS: Our @SendNetwork team in Michigan had their first multi-ethnic Sending Lab with 37 people who speak 12 different languages.
Praise God for churches pursuing multiplication so we can reach everyone, everywhere, with the gospel! 👏 🌎
Our first Ethnic/Language Sending Lab, in Michigan, was filled with 37 people whose families are from East Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe, South America and North America but they serve the Lord in our region speaking 12 languages! We are a family united by a mission. @sendnetwork | @NAMB_SBC | @SendMichigan | @SendDetroitMI | @IMB_SBC | @dmc_nations
Just began our Ethnic/Language focused Sending Lab in Detroit with 35 pastors and ministry leaders in the room! Cannot wait to see what God does through today and as a result of our time together!

We are celebrating a record-sized class of planters at this week’s Orientation, thanks to the generosity of those who give to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering!
Let’s continue to support these churches in prayer as they join God on mission across North America!

Without a clear picture of the kind of disciple we want to be making, it can be easy to see our people end up in the wrong place. Our churches can be busy with activity while not producing genuine, Christ-like disciples.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone supporting church plants, giving to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering, and lifting up our churches and church planters in prayer! 🙏 Your commitment to this movement is what makes it possible!
Raising-up church planters requires intentional leadership development and a willingness to send out your best. Sending and supporting churches, we see your sacrifice and your kingdom mindset. We are so thankful for you and for the difference you are making across North America.
Membership doesn't matter if we are only starting services. But since we plant CHURCHES, membership matters. Big time.
Over at @NewChurches, @noaholdham lays out a 4 step membership process for plants to think through.

“I enjoy being part of Send Network because I feel that I am a part of something bigger than myself...or my congregation. I feel support and partnership, and we are working together on one mission.” Ukrainian church planter Volodymyr Zolotov

“Building and leading a residency is like assembling Lego bricks. We can utilize similar building blocks while embracing the freedom to design something to uniquely fit our passions, strengths, and ministry context.” -@GusHernandezJr
