You are invited to join SENT 2018: a gathering of Mennonites planting Jesus-centered communities…
Be SENT. Join a gathering of more than 100 Mennonite mission-minded, Jesus-following leaders for a two-day church planting summit in Chicago, II. There will be church planters, groups testing the call, missional entrepreneurs, outreach experimenters, pastors, missiologists, and conference leaders.
Be a part of something greater. Be part of a national Anabaptist church planting network that is continuing learning and collaborating together. This gathering will explore how to grow missionally-driven communities that move beyond the maintenance mode.
Be inspired. Share your church planting experiences (the good, the bad, the ugly). Together, we can learn to form Jesus-shaped communities in a variety of contexts. We will reflect on Anabaptist/ Mennonite church planting experiences (both success and failings) and we will again hear Jesus’ words to us, sending us into many different contexts to form Jesus-shaped communities.
I hope to see you there!

Church Planting Minister
