You don't need to raise support to help us plant a church. You can join our team as a church member.

On November 12 Iglesia Cristiana Centrados en el Evangelio was commissioned by Godspeed Church. Godspeed is our partner and the parent church who is officially planting ICCE.

In the neighborhood surrounding the NEU office (and in most urban poor communities), the poverty rate is between 45% and 50%. That means a family of four makes less than $24,860 a year. But the dollars are not the only problem, or even the main problem. Poverty generates a complex web of related brokenness, and often leads to a downward spiral of suffering.

As of this afternoon, the Lugos have arrived in Providence, Rhode Island from Puerto Rico! It was quite a show as we welcomed our much anticipated church planter and his family to New England.

Jonathan Lugo will be the first of our Church Planting Apprentices under the banner of NEU Church Planting. Currently in Puerto Rico, Jonathan and his family are planning to plant a church in Central Falls, RI with NEU Church Planting.

We hope you will join us for The Gospel Coalition New England Conference, Show Them Jesus, October 16-17 online.

We are happy to introduce Jonathan and Tereangeli Lugo. Jonathan has just been accepted as a Church Planting Pastoral Apprentice with NEU.

Recently, we asked Jim Davis about the blessings and challenges of pastoring an innercity church. Now retired from pastoral ministry, Jim serves on the staff of NEU Church Planting as one of the Directors of Care.
