Here is a short overview for the first two steps of our new assessment system for church planters that is being developed by the Church Multiplication Team of the EFCA.
PHASE 1: INTAKE
Planter Interest Form
This form is the first step for those interested in entering our assessment pipeline or simply learning more about opportunities for planting in the EFCA. After filling out this interest survey a district leader will contact the planter candidate to schedule an intake interview (this may not be required if the candidate is already known by district leadership). Following the interview the planter may be cleared to enter the second phase.
PHASE 2: PRE-ASSESSMENT
The pre-assessment phase involves surveys and tests that will be used to develop a comprehensive profile of the potential planter. This profile will provide content for the pre-assessment interview performed by the district leader and will also be useful as the planter who is approved moves on to phase 3, the assessment center retreat.
Survey 1: Biographical and Faith - upload resume
Survey 2: Ministry Experience and Preparation - upload vision for planting
Survey 3: Church and Theology - upload credentialing paper (if relevant)
Once the initial surveys are completed, the planter candidate will complete the "Bundle Package" at Church Planter Profiles which will cost the planter candidate $114. The planter and his wife (if applicable) will also be asked to complete a Prepare Enrich profile for $35. To complete this profile you will register for a new account and follow the directions.
Church Planter Profile Assessment
Couple Checkup Assessment
The pre-assessment phase will conclude with a pre-assessment interview performed by an EFCA district leader. If approved following the interview, the planter candidate and spouse (if applicable) will move into the final two phases, which include the assessment retreat center and a results meeting with the candidate couple, district leadership and a sending church representative.
