Here's what you need to know about partnering with FCPI...
Thanks for your interest in partnering with FCPI. We get many requests and created this page to address Frequently Asked Questions.
Does FCPI provide financial support?
FCPI does not directly plant churches or provide financial support for church planters. We help train planters and connect them to church planting networks through PlanterMatch, and some of those networks provide financial support for planters.
What does it mean to partner with FCPI?
FCPI partners with church planting networks and denominations (but generally not with individual churches), by helping them recruit church planters through PlanterMatch, train planters, and train church planting coaches.
What free resources does FCPI offer?
Here are some of the free resources we offer:
- Free downloadable e-book called "Four Ways to Discern Your Call to Church Planting?"
- Free monthly Church Planter Essentials webinar for planters.
- Follow us on social media at no cost: Instagram | Facebook
What trainings do you offer Church Planters?
- For discerners: we offer a digital course called "Should You Plant a Church?" for $45.
- For church planting teams: We offer a Church Planting Certificate Team Version for $115 or 10 copies for $500 ($50 each).
- For church planters: We offer a year-long Church Planting Certificate cohort for $950.
What do you offer Planters with financial hardships?
If you are a planter from a country or region with significant financial challenges, and are able to recruit at least four other church planters or church planting team members to do a cohort with you, we may be able to offer you five copies of the Church Planting Certificate Team Version for $115 ($23 per person). Please contact churchplanting@fuller.
Where does Fuller stand theologically?
You can find Fuller’s entire statement of faith here. Specifically, our statement of faith affirms women in ministry at all levels as well as traditional marriage as a covenant union between one man and one woman. However, we also respect that Christians from different traditions hold divergent convictions about a variety of issues.
JOIN US FOR PLANTER ESSENTIALS

The Fuller Church Planting Initiative regularly gathers a diverse group of individuals from every stage of church planting to have important discussions about the essentials of planting a church.
We host these conversations once a month with church planters from across the world.
