Important announcement regarding
the Alliance for Saturation Church Planting

After 13 years of God-given influence and ministry in many of the countries of post-communist Eurasia, the Alliance for Saturation Church Planting will cease its corporate activities and dissolve its formal partnership no later June 1, 2006.

The resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of the Alliance for SCP, dated May 5, 2005, states . . . "The need for saturation church planting (SCP) in the countries of formerly communist Eurasia exists today as it did 15 years ago.  With great desire to affirm the vision and values of saturation church planting, and with the sincere hope to see other appropriate vehicles emerge to pursue that vision, the board of the Alliance resolves that the North American legal entity of the Alliance be dissolved and cease its corporate activities no later than June 1, 2006.  An implementation plan will be developed by the board which works toward the dissolution of the corporate entity of the Alliance and facilitates formation of new vehicles that cast and implement the SCP vision."

A celebration of God's goodness to the Alliance and its partners will take place as part of its fall Saturation Church Planting conference scheduled for September 15-17, 2005 in Budapest, Hungary.  More details about this event are available on the Events page of the Alliance website.

Despite the dissolution of the Alliance partnership, the board wholeheartedly encourages those who have associated with the Alliance (whether they be churches, agencies, national church planting leaders or expatriate missionaries) to continue to pursue their SCP-focused efforts.  The Alliance has been effective at gathering and rallying Great Commission Christians around the SCP vision.  Now is the opportunity to leverage those relationships and forge new ones to create new expressions of SCP cooperation.  Alliance materials (e.g. Omega Course) will continue to be available for use and adaptation free of charge.
