God s clear calling on Frank s life to plant a church came while serving on staff at First Baptist Church Cartersville, GA. After several months seeking the Lord s direction, the opportunity came to plant a new church at LakePoint to point people to God through a relationship with Jesus Christ, His Church and His world. Pray - We ask for people to pray for us. There are churches and families praying for Lake Point Church and the leadership. We send specific prayer needs to our partners. We need people praying for us. Promote - We ask for people to promote what God is doing at Lake Point Church within their network and sphere of influence. The purpose is to give God the glory, and to allow others to play a part.

5 Church Planter Family Church Plant Meeting Space N/A Church Planter Name: Trent Chambers Church Plant Name: Sojourn Community Church Church Plant Physical Address: 231 Arnold Mill Rd, Woodstock, GA Church Planter Church Planter Phone Number: Brief description of the church plant focus group: Woodstock GA has one of the lowest church participation rates in the state. There has been great change in this place over the last 10 years. The city is growing rapidly, with a growing arts scene, outdoor culture and love of all things local. As the city grows, the participation in church life continues to decline. The new life in Woodstock is bringing a greater diversity to the city s population. As with most suburban cities, the poor are marginalized and hidden. We want to be a church that is present in our city s vision for life and culture but with an intentional concern for the poor. Brief bio/summary of you and your family: I am a GA boy and my wife is a TX girl. In 2012, we sought to discern God s call on our lives to plant a church focused on Christ-centered worship, community-driven discipleship and a vision to be present with neighbors. We moved to Woodstock at the end of 2012 and started with 2 people, my wife & I. In January 2013 we began leading a small Bible study that, over the last 2 years has grown into the launch team of this new church. We love this city and all that God is doing here. We have great favor with our city and have been asked by city leadership to help care for the physical needs of the poor, elderly and widowed within the city limits. We are constantly looking for partners in local missions, including work teams and financial resources. Our greatest need is financial. We have seen fantastic growth and have witnessed the work of God in creating a caring culture at the church. The city desires us to be present in a downtown location. Though we continue to launch community groups and see a gospel influence rooted in our community, we do not have the means to support a part-time worship leader nor do we have the resources to support a move to the downtown area. We are looking for financial partners who will commit to give to the gospel work among the (de)churched of Woodstock.
6 Church Planter Family Church Plant Meeting Space N/A Church Planter Name: Stevie Flockhart Church Plant Name: Mosaic Church Church Plant Physical Address: Marietta, GA (East Cobb) Church Planter (for right now) Church Planter Phone Number: Brief description of the church plant focus group: We are a team of about people who are absolutely wrecked by the fact that 500,000 people within a 20-min radius of our plant don t know Jesus. We meet monthly and cast Vision to reach the Northwest Atlanta area and beyond. Brief bio/summary of you and your family: My wife and I have been together for 6 years, married for almost 4. We have 2 boys, Finn and Jude, and a baby girl on the way! I believe that my primary ministry is my family. I am a husband and a father before I am a pastor. My wife loves people and is in 100% support of the plant and for my calling. Without Vision the people perish. I could not agree with that more. We have BIG Vision, so that will require BIG support. An established church I hope, has seen life change take place in their own house. I believe that there are many opportunities to serve and engage a community. But where people will spend eternity is the most important issue that we as Christians face. We are starting in a very lost community. The ways we want to reach people will cost money, so we will need financial support. We want to reach them in creative and engaging ways which will take creativity and people. The partners we have will not only have the opportunity to give financially, but also help serve in community events and serving. Any training, formal or relationally, would be huge. We have no idea what we re doing!! An established church with high capacity, established leaders and pastors would be a huge blessing to myself, the staff and people of Mosaic Church.
