As we look back on 2025, our hearts are full of gratitude for all that God has done through New England Urban Church Planting. This year has been a powerful reminder that when God’s people step forward in faith, He moves in ways far beyond what we could ask or imagine.
Our mission remains clear: to equip church planters and team members to build sustainable, diverse, gospel-centered churches among New England’s urban neighborhoods. In 2025, we witnessed that mission come to life in meaningful ways:
- We began the year at the Cross Conference in Louisville, KY, joining with church planters and leaders to gain vision, encouragement, and renewed passion for urban ministry.
- We welcomed Christian Michael and his family as our next church planter, marking an exciting step forward in expanding Gospel-centered presence in New England cities.
- Stone Hill Church surveyed inner-city neighborhoods in Boston, prayerfully listening and learning as they prepared to engage local communities with humility and love.
- First Congregational Church of Hamilton and Harvest Community Church led two weeks of VBS in Central Falls, reaching new families each week and building lasting relationships.
- The Haynes School of Ministry officially launched, equipping leaders with theological depth and practical tools for sustainable urban ministry.
- Iglesia Cristiana Centrados en el Evangelio experienced incredible growth, doubling in size and testifying to God’s faithfulness and the power of the Gospel.
None of this would be possible without your prayers, generosity, and partnership. Your support fuels the work of equipping planters, strengthening teams, and bringing the hope of Christ to New England’s cities.
As we look ahead to 2026, we do so with faith and expectation. God is not finished; He’s just getting started. Join us in praying for wisdom, boldness, and continued fruit as we step into the next chapter together.
