Church planting in Indonesia
NLV joins the Vineyard Indonesian Partnership, which currently comprises of 10 Vineyard fellowships.
Vineyard churches have worked together in partnerships to plant churches all over the world. It is more effective to work together since you can pool people and resources in order to nurture an indigenous, self-sustaining church planting movement in the adopted country. A partnership allows a small fellowship like NLV to make a significant contribution toward the accomplishment of the Great Commission.
Efforts to date made by the Indonesian Partnership, include short term team visits coming to participate in training indigenous church planters, and to support other ministries, from worship concerts to developing small businesses to make inroads into communities. The Indonesian Partnership has also contributed generously to tsunami aid and they have helped construct a new orphanage for the children of tsunami victims on the island of Sumatra.
Here is a video clip of a short term team visit made to Indonesia in 2008.
