We’re Planting a Church in Austin!

Austin skyline

As announced this morning, in June 2010 Coram Deo will send Will and Debbie Walker (and a team of others) to plant a new church in Austin, Texas.

Listen to this morning’s sermon on the CD podcast for the full story, and for a theologically grounded description of what church planting is and why we do it.

Austin stats and demographics

Acts 29 churches in Austin:

To do this well, we’re going to need:

  • Prayerful dependence on God
  • The involvement and ownership of our entire church family
  • A handful of missional people who want to be part of this church plant (especially if you already live in or near Austin)
  • A bunch of emerging leaders to step up and fill the gaps that will be left at Coram Deo
  • Money – both to fund the planting effort and to support the ongoing needs of Coram Deo

Much more to come. Celebrate with us what God has done, what he is doing, and what he has yet to do as we trust him!

Where did that come from? I’ll listen to the audio.

They are currently no Acts 29 churches in Des Moines, Iowa;) If you hear of anybody in this area, please let us know.
