Healthy, missional churches
The Northwest Conference understands that healthy churches are missional churches. The conference staff is committed to casting vision for local mission involvement through the church, to provide coaching in local mission development, and to help identify strategic ministry planning processes and supports with our churches to advance their local community witness as bearers of good news and good deeds. We understand that ministry and service are normal expressions of faithful Christian living, and they demonstrate our call as "sent people" to the world.
Churches Planting Ministries
Churches Planting Ministries (CPM) is an initiative that affirms our mission as Covenanters. CPM is designed to continue to build on the rich heritage of our churches, our conference and the denomination in ministries of compassion and justice. Within the broad call to love and be a witness to our neighbors, Churches Planting Ministries' focus is on God's particular concern expressed throughout scripture for the church to show mercy and tend to the rights of persons on the margin of society.
The vision of CPM is to see every congregation plant ministries of compassion and justice that seek God's transformation for poor and at risk persons and in reaching out with the love of Christ experience renewal.
