Vision Nationals has been planting churches in India since 1992. We currently have over 150 church planters who have planted over 400 churches.
In 2009, as India surpassed China as the number one country for the growth of Christianity, Vision Nationals began its most focused church planting effort yet. Our desire is to see Ten Thousand Churches planted in Asia!
This video, filmed in 2006, gives you a glimpse into the lives of one of our church planters.
For more info on Pastor John read about him on our blog.
We seek to follow in the movement God is already working in India, Nepal, Thailand and throughout Asia by identifying, training and discipling national leaders to plant these churches.
We do that one man at a time, pouring training and resources into him for a period of seven years. At the end of seven years, this man will have planted three churches and these churches will support him, allowing Vision Nationals to take those resources and pour them into another church planter. For a more detailed explanation download our Church Planting Brochure.
As we work toward this task, we are looking for individuals and organizations to partner with us to accomplish this task. What does partnership look like?

Sponsor a Planter -- A rural planter in India can be supported for $50 a month. Sponsors will receive a photo and biography of the planter they sponsor as well as yearly updates. There are three phases of sponsorship. At the beginning of a phase, each sponsor can prayerfully consider continuing sponsorship through the next phase.
- Phase One -- 3 year sponsorship commitment. During the first three years, the planter will complete an intensive training course while simultaneously planting his first church.
- Phase Two -- 2 year sponsorship commitment. In the next two years, the planter will plant a second church.
- Phase Three -- 2 year sponsorship commitment. During the final two years, the planter will plant a third church and transition to being a locally supported planter.
Vision Nationals has five hundred identified church planters waiting to be sent out, and we are praying for individuals and groups to partner with us to send these men out on mission.
Who are our planters? Meet some of these men -- like Kalyan and Joseph -- on our Blog.
