Multiply What Matters Most
Build a Church That Multiplies — Stadia is excited to partner with existing churches to host Multiplying Churches Gatherings, unique spaces designed specifically for church leaders committed to launching, developing, and sustaining multiplying churches.
2025 GATHERINGS
Today’s Churches Are Not Enough
Each year, approximately 8,000 new churches are needed just to keep up with growing populations and church closures. Your church has an opportunity to be part of the solution — multiplying leaders, sending teams, and helping start new churches that reach people far from Jesus.
Healthy churches don’t just grow — they multiply
The Multiplying Churches Gathering brings together leaders who are ready to move from intention to action. Through honest conversations, practical strategy, and peer learning, your team will gain clarity on what multiplication can look like in your unique context.
WHAT YOUR TEAM WILL GAIN:
-
Develop and deepen a culture of multiplication in your church
-
Learn from leaders actively multiplying today
-
Explore collaborative opportunities with Stadia and peer churches
-
Evaluate your current multiplication strategy
-
Leave with a clear, next-step action plan for your team
