CHURCH PLANTING PROCESS

HPBC CHURCH PLANTER APPLICATION PROCESS THROUGH THE NORTH AMERICAN MISSION BOARD (NAMB)

The church planter candidate may apply for the opportunity of church planting in the Hawaii/Pacific Islands through the NAMB website, https://www.namb.net/church-planting/. Find your position of interest (Lead Church Planter, Intern or Apprentice) and register for an application. NAMB will send you the application guide.

 

CHURCH PLANTER PATHWAY

HPBC CHURCH APPLICATION FOR CHURCH PLANTER POSITION ASSISTANCE

The HPBC-affiliated local church may apply for church planter position assistance. The church is required to have a congregational vote to serve as the local sponsor church for the new church plant. To be qualified to apply, the church is to participate in global missions through the SBC Cooperative Program through HPBC by giving a minimum 6% out of undesignated church income, and the church is to give minimum 4% to other SBC entities such as a local association, Sue Nishikawa (HI Pacific Missions), Annie Armstrong (NAMB), Lottie Moon (IMB), World Hunger and other SBC entities.
