Planting Churches Worldwide

Acts 29 is a global network helping leaders plant churches to see lives transformed by Jesus.

Plant A Church

About  Acts 29

Planting churches is one of the most effective ways to reach people who do not know Jesus. But building a healthy church that lasts is hard, and going alone often leads to unnecessary isolation, drift, or burnout.

Acts 29 exists to plant churches worldwide by recruiting, training, assessing, and supporting church planters. The result is not just new churches, but churches that endure and multiply—healthy congregations reaching their cities, training leaders, and planting again.

Our Story

Acts 29 began in 1999 with a simple conviction: the best way to reach people who do not know Jesus is to plant churches.

What started as a small group of like-minded pastors has grown into a global network of nearly 650 churches spanning more than 50 countries and operating in more than 30 languages.

Over the last 25+ years, Acts 29 has assessed more than 1,600 church planters, and developed a proven pathway of training, assessment, coaching, and support aimed at long-term health and multiplication.
