NOVO
Novo is a Latin word that means to make new.
The name is a powerful statement about the aim of our partnership with God’s work in the world—the redemption of people everywhere. We long to see men, women, and children made new in the image of Jesus.
The name also describes how we go about this redemptive mission. We are innovators, artists, risk-takers, and catalysts. We believe creativity is critical to sparking and sustaining the gospel movements we long to see.

Missional Pathway
Our team comes alongside existing churches to help the members of the church become missionaries to their community. We serve as a cultural change-agent helping churches move from being church-centered to mission-centered.
We do this by walking with churches through a program called the “Missional Pathway” and providing coaching and support for the pastors and leaders along the way
ACTIVATE(D)
ACTIVATE(D) is a three-part process that helps christians who still feel lost after they’ve been found live out God’s purpose for lives. First, it helps individuals find clarity on God’s calling for their life. Secondly, we help Christians build community that is centered on making new disciples of Jesus. And thirdly, we provide continued resourcing and support for those communities as they continue to make new disciples of Jesus.
