612planting and YOUCHOOSE.community explained
We recognize that...
the most effective way to reach new people with the gospel is church planting…
- approximately 4,000 churches close every year...
the current cost of planting an established church in America is $200,000-750,000+ over two-four years…
- many church plants are struggling or just getting by after 2 years…
planters are often forced to be full time fundraisers after 18 months because of a lack of funds…
- there are numerous geographic areas where sustained costs cannot allow for the typical church to be planted...

Our Strategy
We are starting a movement of reproducible, missionally driven, bi-vocational businesses that makes disciples through a franchise model discount grocery and variety store.
We find planters and businessmen with a desire to target a specific area or people group in a typically challenging geographic area and get them self-sustaining in 6-12 months. The patrons of the new store are thrilled to shop at the deeply discounted store and the planter builds increasing trusted relationships with his ‘customers.’
After needs are met and trust is built, the planter will launch whatever type of church God has placed in him. And he, in turn, will help another plant get launched in the future (hopefully within 6-12 months).
In Summary...
Be assessed... launch a store… build relationships… meet needs (physical and spiritual)... start a church… help launch another store (within 6-12 months).
Once the trust is built, the planter can launch whatever type of church God has placed in him. And he, in turn, will help another plant get launched in the future (hopefully within 6-12 months). The rest is... history in the making.
