Overview

About Project Jerusalem
Our innovative training strategy partners Baptist Bible Seminary Master of Divinity students with local churches and mission agencies to intentionally plant new in the Northeastern United States. Students receive “on-the-job” practical training in how to launch and grow a new church.

Students receive appropriate assessment, training, mentoring, deployment, and support through an internship that gives the student abundant opportunity to succeed in planting a dynamic church.

Through Project Jerusalem, the M.Div. in Church Planting concentration provides the education essential for ministry and the experience of actually planting a church.

Where We Focus

An estimated 90 million people live within a five-hour radius of the BBS campus. Yet the Northeast, with its massive population, is the least evangelized area of the country.

BBS is looking to grow dynamic Bible preaching churches in needy urban, ethnic, and rural communities in the region. Read more about our coming focus on New York City here.
