Grace Road Church partners with others around the region and world to spread a passion for Christ.

The strongest way to spread the message of Christ and keep it spreading in a region is through planting cross-centered churches that will bring the message of Christ, and work to multiply other churches that will do the same. So Grace Road has a strong church planting emphasis.

We financially support the following church-planters as our partners in mission:

The Acts 29 Network / acts29network.org

Because we believe deeply in planting churches, we have partnered with the Acts 29 network to help plant churches around the world. Acts 29 is not a denomination, but is a network of mutually-supportive, cross-centered churches that exist to spread Jesus’ message in large part by planting other churches.

Marc Pilon – Axe 21 Church / Sherbrooke, Quebec / www.axe21.org

Marc is a native French Canadian who has a heart for bringing the Gospel to the growing, young city of Sherbrooke, Quebec. Axe 21 church is a new church that launches in fall of 2010 with the goal of bringing the message of Christ to this province where only .5% of the population proclaim Christ as Savior. Quebec is considered to be the biggest mission field in North America.

J. & L. – Istanbul and Kurdish Villages in Turkey

To help them maintain their anonymity, we won’t put their names online. J. and L. have given their lives to bringing the message of Christ to the nation of Turkey. Turkey is predominantly Muslim, but because they are a more pro-western country, they are a country with more openness to Christianity than many other Muslim countries. For that reason, Turkey is considered to be a strategic gateway to the Muslim world.
