We are praying for you and for your church as you prepare for the many curveballs that church planting will throw at you. We hope the the resources on this page help you think through next steps for online church in emergencies like the Coronavirus. Please pass these resources on to other church leaders who are thinking through emergency preparedness in light of COVID-19. Thank you for being the hands and feet of Jesus in this situation.
