MULTIPLYING GOD’S WORK THROUGH GOD’S PEOPLE
First Presbyterian Church Planting Committee is a team of disciples committed to the advancement of the Church in San Antonio. We strive to empower 30 new church plants in San Antonio by 2030. We do this through fueling and forming church planters, facilitating kingdom advancement, fertilizing church reproduction, and deploying church planters through innovative residency programs.
We are spiritual brothers and sisters sacrificially participating in church planting. We are spiritual parents championing spiritual children. We are spiritual grandparents supporting and spoiling spiritual grandchildren. We are spiritual leaders shepherding families toward the King and His Kingdom. We leverage influence from the house and homes of First Presbyterian Church for the highest good of the Church in San Antonio and the multiplication of Christ’s disciple-making community through church planting, which happens through Resourcing, Reproducing, and Residency.

God is alive and active in building His kingdom in San Antonio, and is blessing us with a front row seat!
