2009 Church Plants to Launch on Sept. 13

On September 13, 2009 the Association of Hill Country Churches will launch its newest churches bringing the total to 19 reaching from East Round Rock to Dripping Spings and San Saba & Marble Falls to Gonzales extending the boundaries of the city of Austin. As Chris Tomlin sings, "Greater things are yet to come, greater things are still to be done in this city!" We continue to pray for God to do Great things in our City through the existing and brand new church plants. The Lead Pastors for the plants share their brief stories in this clip.

Church Plant Essentials Launching September 11

Join the conversation about the Art and Science of Planting a Missional, Gospel Centered Church starting Friday, September 11 at noon.  Open to all church planters.

Join John Herrington and other subject matter experts at the Church Plant Training Center at Hill Country Bible Church for an eight-week training course designed to help you plant a high-impact, missional church. 

Hill Country has planted 19 churches in greater Austin and has partnered with many others who are part of a like-minded, gospel-centered movement.  Their mission is to see every man, woman and child in greater Austin have the chance to experience the life changing reality of Jesus Christ.

Their desire is to see one hundred churches planted in greater Austin in the next five years.  And they know they cannot do it alone.
