IS YOUR CHURCH STRUGGLING?

A difficult season
doesn’t have to be
the final chapter.

Faithful people can find themselves carrying more than they can sustain. Aging congregations, empty classrooms, leadership gaps, and mounting expenses deserve compassionate attention and an honest plan.

We begin by listening. Together, we can consider a church health assessment, leadership assistance, ministry resources, or a partnership if you would like to explore one.

RELATIONSHIPS THAT SERVE THE MISSION

Work together.
Choose the relationship.

Participate independently, collaborate on a ministry, or—only when both congregations wish to explore it—consider a formal campus relationship. Each path begins with a clear understanding of what it means.

Understand the three partnership paths

01Independent network participationConnections and resources while remaining independent.

02Ministry partnershipWork together on an agreed ministry or support plan.

03Possible campus relationshipA separate, prayerful process requiring mutual agreement.

EAST TENNESSEE ROOTS. A HEART FOR THE LOCAL CHURCH.

A shared gospel.
A future worth serving.

The Way Fellowship serves Baneberry and Oakland under Senior Pastor Owen Caudill. Founded in 2025, our congregation has seen more than 80 baptisms in its first year and experienced churches working together in ministry. We offer that experience as a starting point for listening and learning alongside others.
