You can plant a church, and Orchard NEO can help! Bring your vision to life! Orchard NEO’s two-year, fully funded residency is designed to turn your passion into purpose. Throughout your residency, you’ll receive comprehensive coaching, full financial support, and all of the tools you need to successfully launch and lead an independent church in Northeast Ohio in two years. By the end, you’re not just leading a church, you’re transforming a community.

Orchard NEO is the church planting residency of Christ Community Chapel, located in Hudson, Ohio. Orchard NEO has a goal to plant 60 churches in Northeast Ohio by 2050. Orchard NEO offers a two-year, fully funded, full-time residency program for aspiring Church Planters. To realize God’s vision for their role in this mission, we work alongside our planters and train them to be as effective as possible. We are committed to identifying, training, supporting, and deploying as many church planters as it takes to reach Northeast Ohio.
