God led Saylorville Church to further the Gospel by planting a church in 2005. The Lord blessed this endeavor with Lakeside Fellowship in Polk City, becoming the first church plant in what would soon become the Engage Network. Since then, God has multiplied what was just one church planting another into a fellowship of gospel-centered churches planting gospel-centered churches. Currently, the network consists of:
- Saylorville Church, Des Moines
- Lakeside Fellowship, Polk City
- Living Waters Fellowship, Des Moines
- High Pointe Church, Altoona
- Redeemer Church, Winterset
- New City Church, Ankeny
- Ballard Creek Church, Huxley
- Eden Church, Des Moines
We believe God has given the churches in the Engage Network a biblical mandate to identify, train, and equip men and women to reach the world with the Gospel, build up the Body of Christ and do the work of the ministry. Scripture clearly says that it is the Church’s privilege and responsibility to take a proactive approach to producing laborers for the worldwide harvest (Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 1:8, Ephesians 4:11-16 and 2 Timothy 2:2).
The Engage Network Leadership Development Program is an all-church strategy of identifying, equipping, and sending disciples into vocational ministry, especially in the area of church planting. We want to move people from our ministries to the ministry.
Contact the Engage Network Director of Development to find out more about the leadership pipeline, apply for a local church internship, or request information about a church planting residency.
