Vision 10x26

Our goal is to see multiplying churches planted on 10 university campuses by 2026.

Exploration Trips

In March and June, LIFT Church hosted exploration trips to new campuses including McGill University and Western University.

Next Generation Discipleship Centre

In February, LIFT Church officially opened the doors to the Next Generation Discipleship Centre.

New Missionary Cohort

In May, we welcomed, trained, and deployed 13 new campus missionaries increasing out total missionary count to 72 serving our six campuses.

How will we reach 10 campuses?

Simple Church Apprentices are discipled and trained and when ready to multiply, they are sent as a Simple Church leader to begin a new Simple Church.

Everyone in a Simple Church.
Every Simple Church
Multiplying.

How will we reach new campuses?

Multiplying disciple-makers will be sent to begin a Simple Church at a new campus. As they build relationships and serve the campus, they begin to invite people to Simple Church and into family. Through invitation and intentional discipleship, the singular Simple Church will grow until it is ready to multiply and send.

We call this process Tilling: breaking ground for a discipleship movement to begin somewhere new. 

Next Generation Discipleship Centre

The Next Generation Discipleship Centre will serve as the training centre for disciple-makers being sent to university and college campuses across the world to see people made fully alive in the hope of Jesus. There is a tremendous need for truth to be proclaimed on post-secondary campuses now more than ever, as the world drastically moves away from the Gospel.

We are committed to being physically present in the student neighbourhood surrounding McMaster University. As a result, we have purchased a building steps from McMaster University campus, one of the most influential campuses in Canada. Redevelopment of the Next Generation Discipleship Centre is expected to complete at the end of 2023.

Presence requires three essential ingredients: place, people and provision. We have the place: campuses all over. We are discipling the people. We invite you to join us with the provision. Help us be present in the lives of students to raise a new generation of disciples who will make disciples for the name of Jesus.
