Intercultural Development
Networks
A Network consists of two or more churches that covenant together—sharing relationships and resources—to engage in mutual encouragement, a shared regional church planting project, and an Alliance Global Partnership (Acts 1:8).
Network Map
Networks are a primary vehicle enabling Alliance Northwest churches and leaders to accomplish together what we could never do alone.
Where it can be hard for one church to take sole responsibility to mother a new church regionally or own a global project, several can do it together – catalyzed by the support and resources of the Alliance NW District Office.
Reach out to ollan@alliancenw.org for questions about networks.
Current Networks and Network Leaders
Lead Pastors of churches involved in a Network typically meet three times annually in a 24-hour retreat format to pray, play, and plan together.
Many Networks include strategic learning during their retreats, to grow their sending capacities.
