Supporting Healthy Congregations
CBFSC exists to champion the vitality and witness of local churches.
We know that congregational health isn’t about numbers alone—it’s about spiritual depth, strong leadership, meaningful mission, and authentic community. Whether your church is thriving, discerning a new direction, or facing a challenge, we’re here to help you flourish.
CBFSC supports healthy congregations through:
- Leadership Development – Equipping pastors, staff, and lay leaders for faithful and effective ministry.
- Missional Partnerships – Connecting churches with local and global mission opportunities that align with their passions and gifts.
- Resource Sharing – Offering practical tools, coaching, and consulting for everything from governance to worship planning to community engagement.
- Support During Transitions – Assisting congregations in times of pastoral transition, conflict resolution, or strategic discernment.
- Peer Networks and Collaboration – Fostering connection among churches to learn from one another, share resources, and dream together.
No two churches are the same—but every church deserves support. CBFSC walks alongside congregations of all shapes and sizes, helping them become more healthy, whole, and hopeful.
Let’s partner together for what’s next.

This ministry serves as both a community of belonging and a catalyst for equitable representation and advocacy in leadership, worship, and mission.
