EPC Church Planting Community exists to support and equip church planters in launching and sustaining healthy churches. Through strategic coaching, peer cohorts, and comprehensive training, we provide planters with the tools, relationships, and encouragement needed to thrive in ministry.

We are looking for passionate church planters who feel called to start new gospel-centered communities. Our approach emphasizes planting in community, ensuring that no planter walks alone. We offer:

✅ Coaching & Training – Personalized support from experienced church planters
✅ Cohorts & Community – Connection with other planters for shared learning and encouragement
✅ Strategic Support – Guidance in mission, vision, core values, strategic planning, executive/business coaching, and soul care to ensure both the planter and the church flourish

Orlando is currently experiencing a growth rate of 1,000 new residents each week, presenting a significant opportunity to launch a church planting movement. Substantial funding has already been allocated for two church plants. These will serve as anchors of the movement. The plants will be managed and receive support from the EPC Church Planting Community, led by Richard Rieves, Hunter Bailey and Alfredo Forhans.

Given the scale of this vision, we are seeking movement leaders to plant flagship churches that will, in turn, plant additional churches. Partnering with EPC Church Planting is an added benefit as it offers substantial support, including biannual in-person training, coaching, and cohorts. Our goal is to foster a community of planters where no one feels isolated, and every planter is relationally connected and resourced. We are committed to planting gospel-driven, kingdom-minded, holistic, healthy, and reproducing churches led by well-supported planters. This community is led by three experienced church planters: Hunter Bailey, Alfredo Forhans, and Richard Rieves. You can discover more at www.epcchurchplanting.com.

If you feel called to plant a church and want to be part of a movement of churches that plant churches, we’d love to connect with you.
