We're passionate about
church planting!


UNION HILL

In November of 2000, our church planting minister, Steve Martin, and 75 of our members, including three of our elders, began meeting in a warehouse in Nixa, MO. During those early years they dealt with the cold of winter and the heat of summer with only one bathroom facility. They pioneered through these difficulties and began a new building on an 18 acre site, doing most of the work with wolunteer labor. They moved into the first phase of that new ficility in 2004, and in early fall of 2009, the over 400 believers of  Union Hill Church of Christ moved in to their new completed auditorium (pictured above).

BROOKLINE

In January of 2005, having seen the success of the first plant, an even larger group wanted to be part of the second plant. Our youth minister, Tony Gentry, transitioned to become the preaching minister and again, three of our elders went out with this group of 150. Due to the generosity and sacrifice of many of those, both sending and going, the Brookline Church of Christ was able to meet from the first day in a completed facility on 18 acres of land. Within the first year, the growing number of young families required the addion of a new education wing on this facility.

WILLARD

Early in 2009, the leaders of Union Hill, Brookline and Sunset met together to pray and plan the third church plant. Each of the congregations planned to contribute and on March 22, 2010, papers were signed to purchase a 9 1/2 acre property as home to the new Jackson Street congregation. They met for the first time September 18, 2011.

RAPID CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA

We are in-volved in the support of a small but vibrant congregation through financial support as well as visits from members and groups who assist them in as we are able. The Black Hills Church of Christ has approximately 70 members.

GRANBY, COLORADO

We also offer support to a congregation in Granby Colorado through visits from members and groups and with supplies. The Granby Church of Christ has approximately 40 members.

HISPANIC CHURCH PLANT

Sunset is working with several area congregations to help establish a Hispanic congregation of the Church of Christ in the Springfield area. We are still in the early stages but hope to have major steps taken this year.
