Program areas at Underground Network Incorporated
Microchurch Planting: Our main purpose is to help initiate and grow microchurches reaching different groups of people in our community. In 2023, we served over 160 microchurches. Some of our microchurches are need-based and are engage people in the margins. They form community around a shared calling of meeting a certain need or addressing a certain dispersed group of people. They raise their own support from outside of the Underground Network, Inc. to pay their staff and accomplish their vision. We provide media and finance services to these microchurches.
Training Program: We seek to help and provide resources to new and current leaders to do ministry that they are called to do. We offer different training and services that include a summer intensive, special events and conferences. In 2023, we offered over 40 unique leadership development platforms tailored for microchurch leaders' needs. Over 400 missional leaders were served in the Tampa Bay region through our services, coaching, and convening spaces. An additional 520 leaders across the world were served through coaching, consulting, conferences, and online learning environments.
Ministry Center (Hub): This program provides mutiuse meeting rooms, co-work and an auditorium in a separate space. All of which are available to microchurches to use as needed. The Hub provides cowork spaces for support and microchurch staff and volunteers, and conference rooms for training and meetings. The services we provide to microchurches to support their ministries are mainly located in our community.
