Growing and multiplying churches planted in the 1990s
The four partners of the C&MA in Russia are church groups that planted over 100 churches between 1992 and 2002. The largest of these is the ECMU, which has become a member of the Alliance World Fellowship. An important objective of the C&MA in Southern Russia, where the ECMU began its work, is to help key churches clear growth barriers and send out their own daughter-church planters. A particular pattern for addressing growth issues is being utilized, and churches are being helped to send out their own church planters through a program of small-business development. During this coming year, U.S. C&MA missionary and Don Plummer will work full-time in this project.
