Feel Free to Love Your Work

At the DayCenter for Church Planting, we help church planters, church plant teams, and sponsor churches to reach an area for Christ. Our principles come from the Bible and time-tested practices of successful businesses and church plants. Biblical principles work for any church—new, on plateau, or declining.

Healthy churches change their communities. We believe that God wants healthy churches sponsoring healthy church plants. You will find the freedom to love your work when you find the plan that makes the work . . . work.

The Most Diverse Laboratory in the Country

Our laboratory is the City of New Orleans.

New Orleans is a large metropolitan city, an international port and a "melting pot" of many races and cultures. It is also a remarkable collection of historic neighborhoods, many of them as separate and distinctive as if they were separate townships or small villages. (Mel Leavitt)

New Orleans gives us access to millions of people looking for God. We help churches reach people in the notorious French Quarter, poverty-stricken Bywater, urban professional Uptown, and artsy Warehouse District. We live in one of the world’s great cities, on the campus of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. We work in partnership with the North American Mission Board and the Nehemiah Project.

Our director has planted successful churches in New Orleans and Albuquerque and has revitalized two churches in Texas. Our students have planted all over the US and Canada (check out a church in New York City or one in Florida.) We have experience. Let us know how we can be helpful.
