21 Oct NACPF UNITE 2013
Each year the NACPF has a conference where churches from all over North America come to connect and encourage one another to continue the advancement of the gospel. The NACPF is the North American Church Planting Foundation which exists to support and promote church planting efforts in North America.
This year many of our staff were able to go to Raleigh, NC for the conference. This is a great time for churches to connect with one another and cast vision to see new churches planted all over North America. We believe the gospel is advanced through the planting and revitalization of healthy local churches. Through the NACPF we are able to connect with churches all over North America including places like Boston, Seattle, Miami, Columbus, New York, and New Jersey. This allows us to partner with these churches and send Summer Link teams to these locations. This past summer we were able to send teams all over the world to see the gospel advanced and churches planted.
The teaching at the conference was very encouraging. It revolved around the first 11 chapters in 1 Corinthians. We were able to hear from Andy Davis (FBC Durham), Bill Curtis (Cornerstone Baptist), Curtis Cook (Hope Fellowship), and Ken Lewis (Crosspoint). Each of these pastors encouraged us and challenged us from the Scriptures.
I left this conference extremely encouraged at the work that is being done all over our country and world. The gospel is being advanced through the planting of healthy local churches. Let us all be united in this endeavor to see the nations reached with the gospel for the glory of God.
