NETS pursues our mission of equipping servant leaders to plant gospel-driven churches in New England and abroad in a number of ways:

We train seminary graduates for the rigors of church planting in New England and abroad.

We partner with existing stateside churches to plan missions trips at church planting sites both in the U.S. and abroad.

We partner with foreign seminaries to train indigenous church planters for international church plants.

We provide ongoing mentoring and significant financial support for at least four years after a church is planted.

We are a global church-planting organization with growing partnerships in Canada, Wales, Ukraine, New Zealand, Africa, and Cambodia.

How do we do this?
NETS recruits exemplary seminary graduates into our intensive two-year Residency Program. Here we cover all spiritual and practical aspects of church planting.

Those who satisfactorily complete the Residency Program then transition to the Field Program. For four years they receive both ongoing mentoring and financial support, allowing couples to devote all their efforts to planting their new church.

Internationally, NETS seeks to partner with denominations and existing seminaries to establish a church-planter training center led by a NETS graduate and dedicated to equipping men for indigenous church planting.
