What Will We do?
At Journey Church we believe that God has called us to be fruitful and to multiply. Therefore as we grow, we will plant churches and partner with others to advance His Kingdom in our city and beyond.
We will strategically pray over six areas in Jacksonville to plant churches and we will believe for our first plant to take place within three years of existence.
Join us in praying for churches to be planted in the following areas:
- Northside
- Arlington
- Beaches
- Nocatee/210
- Orange Park/Fleming Island
- Westside
Church Planting Training and Opportunities
We are affiliated with Converge Worldwide and Converge Church Planting. In our opinion, this is one of the best organizations in the nation for training and equipping church planters who are interested in planting missional churches.
One Year Church Planting Internship
We offer a one year church planting internship to help assess, train and equip potential church planters.
