EncounterBuilder
Creating Sustainable Ecosystems of Transformation and Mission
ABOUT ENCOUNTER BUILDER
EncounterBuilder is not just an event or training. It’s a two-year community of practice designed to walk with you and your team to create a culture where encountering the love and power of God is normal — leading to disciples who are mended, made, and multiplied.
You’ll collaborate with leaders across New England, receiving teaching, training, strategy, and coaching that equips your community for reproducible transformation and mission.
