Multiplying Churches
Multiplication isn't just about addition—it's about established churches becoming sending churches. Harbor provides the resources, training, and support you need to raise up the next generation of church planters from within your congregation.

“We believe churches on mission together form a strong base to launch churches and multiply ministries.”
Your role in the movement.
Established churches are the backbone of church multiplication. By investing in residencies, you're not just sending one planter—you're creating a sustainable pipeline for the gospel to multiply across generations.
