In the name of the Father, we are a family, in the name of Son, we are servants under one Lord, in the name of the Holy Spirit, we are equipped and sent on mission with Jesus to redeem the world to God’s original design.

  • ABOUT US

The Metropolitan District of the Christian and Missionary Alliance serves a geographic region of 28-million people, almost 1 in 10 Americans. Though we have seen God’s favor in our church planting efforts, we are convinced that our current strategy is insufficient to meet our challenge. Our current strategy is growth by addition. What we need is a multiplication movement. We believe that the formation and multiplication of branch communities will complement our existing church planting strategy and multiply our witness. The Metro District stands ready to launch branch communities to our targeted area.

  • Vision

Branch Communities desire to see New Jersey, New York City, and Rockland, Orange, Putnam, & Westchester counties saturated with gospel-centered, multiplying missional communities that can form the nucleus churches that all worked together collectively sharing everything we have to accomplish this vision.

  • Strategy

The ideal scenario is for local churches to start missional communities that would live life on life in community on mission together. As these communities reproduce, five to six missional communities can join together to form new church expressions.
