We Need Church Planters In Detroit

You Can Help Us Meet The Need

Detroit has experienced significant economic and population decline over the past few decades, which has impacted the spiritual landscape of the city.

  • Many existing churches have closed or seen declining attendance, leaving parts of the city underserved.

  • Only 10.4% of Detroit’s population identifies as evangelical Christian.

  • There is only one (Christian) church for every 33,806 people in Detroit, making it one of the most underserved cities in North America.


By planting new churches in Detroit, we can revitalize the spiritual life of this city and reach more people with the gospel message.

You Can Accelerate Church Plants In Detroit

Church planting is critical for Detroit because much of the city is spiritually underserved, with  a significant number of churches closing or experiencing declining attendance. This has left large parts of the city without access to spiritual support. Additionally, with one Christian church for every 33,806 people, the city’s Christian infrastructure is inadequate to meet the needs of its residents. 

With increased support and training, the vision is to commission new church plants across Detroit.

Will you help train church planters and accelerate the health of Detroit and beyond?
