Meeting America’s Greatest Need
Why new churches? Because the church to population ratio is declining rapidly.
- In 1900 there were 27 churches for every 10,000 Americans.
- In 1950 there were 17 churches for every 10,000 Americans.
- In 1996 there were 11 churches for every 10,000 Americans.
Many people look at these numbers and question, “But hasn’t the size of churches increased?” Unfortunately the answer is “no.” The median size of the church has remained the same for the past 100 years.
Baptist Church Planters is a North American church planting agency which exists to partner with churches and missionaries for the purpose of establishing new churches. Our mission is to aid in the establishment, development, and maturity of fundamental Baptist churches in as many ethnic communities as possible thoughout the United States.
What We Do
To achieve this mission, Baptist Church Planters (BCP) provides services to church planters. The services include handling gifts for their support, providing needed resources, encouragement, and accountability. The ultimate goal of BCP is to see active, vibrant, conservative churches that can graduate from mission status and fulfill the Great Commission by starting another church.
Get Involved
In church planting, there is a place for everyone! BCP strongly believes in the concept of team ministry. The start of every new church requires a team of visionary church planters, godly laymen, hard working volunteers, and sacrificial donors. You can be a vital part of a church planting team!
