Resonate Greenhouse

Greenhouses are basically organic networks for church planters and those interested in creating new forms of church. We get together, we tell stories, we inspire one another... Led by Pernell Goodyear of the FRWY.ca and Jared Siebert of the Life Cycle Project.

Why are we doing this?

One of the things that the Resonate community has heard over the last couple of years has been a desire for face to face communication. While it has happened all over the place informally, one of the things that we have been working towards in 2006 is the formation of local learning communities.

We have started:

ECHO | A monthly conversation on theology, worship, church and Christianity in today's rapidly changing culture.

Cultivate Learning Parties | We have also started Cultivate, it's a yearly non-conference to explore different aspects of church planting and new forms of church.

And now we have Resonate Greenhouses for church planters. In 2005, Pernell and Jared started to invite church planters and people feeling God's call to plant churches together to talk and dream about what God was calling them to do. That original network has grown and changed into others throughout Southern Ontario, Montreal, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Calgary.

Interested in joining us on our journey to change the world?
