Church Planting

CHURCH PLANTING

The Canons of the Anglican Diocese of the South say, “A principal work of the Diocese is to plant new congregations, to encourage and assist the Congregations in planting new congregations, and to strengthen newly planted congregations to become self-sustaining member Congregations.” Our primary goal is to see healthy church plants planted by healthy church planters within the Anglican Diocese of the South for many years to come- a healthy, effective and sustained effort.  We are striving to create an environment within ADOTS where church planting is a normative aspect of our clergy, laity, and congregations.  We are building an ecosystem in which local planters are raised up, sent out, and encouraged in their work.
