Who We Are
Path 1 is a team of leaders drawn from national, regional and local levels of The United Methodist Church, whose mission is to provide collaborative leadership to evangelize the NEW USA so that we might reach more people, more young people, more diverse people for Christ by creating new places for new people. In response to vision pathway #1 set by the Council of Bishops, the national strategy created by the congregational developers, and the desire of many of our agencies and Racial Ethnic National Plans, Path 1 seeks to create the leaders and processes to regain our healthy denominational habit of starting a church a day.

What We Hope to Accomplish
By 2012, we seek to equip 1,000 church planters who enable Annual Conferences to start 650 new congregations that each commits to start a new congregation within their first 10 years thereby, beginning a process that forms millions of new disciples of Jesus Christ within 30 years.The real measure of success will not be in those numbers or in membership increases or improved giving but in the lives that will be touched and drawn to Christ because these new churches were able to reach people who might otherwise not be reached.
