Making Disciples of Jesus Christ is our Mission Statement here at HPPC.

HPPC’s vision is everyone becoming a body of believers passionate about Jesus Christ, energized by worship and prayer, rooted in Scripture, and dedicated to growing God’s Kingdom.

Our NCD Mission

HPPC NCD is called to plant churches as a witness of the Kingdom of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ through meaningful partnerships and initiatives locally, nationally, and globally.

Our NCD Vision

Increasing a witness of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God by way of new church development centered on Christ through wide reaching partnerships.

As a result we seek to engage in:

  • Planting churches that are:
    • Scripturally sound
    • Spiritually vibrant
    • Strategically located & contextualized
  • Multiplying disciples of Jesus Christ
  • Missional-Incarnational initiatives
  • Partnerships with like-minded ministries
  • Collaboration with influential leaders and organizations
  • A “glocal” approach

Our New Church Development guiding Scriptures include:

  • Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." – Matthew 28:18-20
  • Then he [Jesus] opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. He told them, "This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem . – Luke 24:45-47
  • “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem , and in all Judea and Samaria , and to the ends of the earth." – Acts 1:8
  • They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. – Acts 2:42 -47
  • Acts 13
