By God’s help, a church plant took place in southwest Winston-Salem, NC in the spring of 2017. Winston-Salem is one of the largest cities in our state and is expecting an explosion in population in the years to come. With a population of nearly 250,000, and with 85-90% of that population not meaningfully involved in a local church, Winston-Salem is a prime target for church planting.
We have set aside two men from our church, Alex DiPrima and Brad Kinnison, to lead this church plant. If you are interested in learning more about the plant, you can visit their website at Emmanuel Church of Winston-Salem or you can email Alex at alexdiprima@nullemmanuelws.com. If you’d like to give to this work please click GIVE, and you can designate your gift to “Winston Salem Church Plant.”
