RESIDENCY LAB
Early Years Lab
Support for planters in the years right after launch — guided space to process where you're at, a few people in your corner, and room to pause before you burn out
01
Semester Gathering
One gathering at the start of each semester, guys only. Guided and peer conversation, with action plans built around your actual stage and needs — not a generic curriculum.
Kaynenn Parker or Ben Connelly are available to check in, coach, or otherwise serve you through the rest of the semester.
Fall: Sept 1, 9a–12p (lunch included) · Spring: TBD, likely around the PFW Church Planting Conference
02
Semester Dinner
One dinner mid-semester, for couples. An evening in prayer and relationship with other couples walking the same road. Fall & Spring — dates TBD
03
La Palmilla Retreat
Year-end retreat, for couples. Every planter needs a moment to pause, rest, and think honestly about sustainability. Couples join the Church Planting residents to close out the year together. Tues evening, May 4 – Thurs morning, May 6 (2027 speakers TBA)
Commitment
Time — A few hours a semester (guys), one dinner a semester (couples), one multi-day retreat a year.
Cost — Just the La Palmilla Retreat. Everything else is covered.
