Church Planting Assessment Center (CPAC)

The CPAC is held once or twice a year and is a four-day event where a team of assessors with experience in church planting will observe you through a series of church planting exercises.

• The assessors will be evaluating you concerning some of the specific competencies that are needed in church planting.
• At the end of the CPAC event you will get feedback through an interview and a follow-up letter.
• Church planters for missions receiving funding from ONA must either be approved by a CPAC, or they must be experienced church planters with demonstrated church planting competencies.
• Candidates for CPAC must be prescreened and recommended by one of our ten presbyteries. They may then request a CPAC application from the office of ONA, and if approved, they will be scheduled to attend.
