Greetings Arizona Pastors,

It's hard to believe that our annual Church Planting conference is less than two months away.  As I prepared this email I came across some amazing statistics that reminded me anew about the eternal significance of our conference and the need for us to plant more churches in this state.

Ed Stetzer of Lifeway Research said this about some of his recent studies among churches and church plants:

"42 percent of church plant attendees previously weren’t part of a church. By contrast, as high as 90 percent of new members in established churches are transfers from another congregation."

"The church planting study indicates newly planted churches are more effective than existing ones at drawing people who aren’t connected with a church."

“In winning new converts to Christ, church plants are light-years ahead of the average church because of their focus on reaching the unchurched.”


I want to encourage you to contribute to the momentum and synergy that can be experienced as we join together during this time to fulfill the Great Commission in our beautiful state.

CONFERENCE SPEAKER

Picture
Our conference this year is being hosted by Pastor Scott Naill and First Baptist Bible Church in Glendale. We are honored and excited to have Pastor Park Sutton of Calvary Baptist Church in Fort Collins, Colorado, for our conference speaker.

Bro Sutton has been immersed in church planting from a child.  His dad started two churches in the States; one in Wyoming and the second in Colorado.  In fact, Bro Sutton pastors the church his dad started back in 1992.  Bro Sutton has been there for more than 20 years and under his leadership Calvary Baptist has been involved in several church plants in a variety of ways.
