Church Plant Support

Hackensack, New Jersey

Strategic Launch Network

Oct 3 - 6, 2025

At Saddleback we partner with dynamic leaders with a heart and passion for launching NEW churches in some of the most strategic, hard-to-reach, under-churched cities that many have written off across the United States. We don't believe the story is written for these regions, and we're confident that God stands ready to move in new and exciting ways in our day. But the work isn't easy, which is why we're partnering with the

Strategic Launch Network to pour into and encourage these world-changing leaders and churches along the way. Churches like Eden Church in New Jersey!

Join us October 3rd-6th to support, serve, and encourage the Eden church family as they celebrate their one year anniversary and serve in a city wide event.

Join The Initiative for Vulnerable Children on a transformative mission trip to Manila, Philippines, as we work to bring hope and practical solutions to the pressing challenges of orphan care. Partnering church to church and collaborating with local government agencies, our mission focuses on supporting vulnerable families and children by addressing systemic issues and providing hands-on care.

Through this initiative, we aim to empower local communities with sustainable strategies, strengthen family support systems, and ensure that every child experiences love, care, and stability. Volunteers will engage in meaningful activities such as workshops for caregivers, resource distribution, and community-building efforts that promote long-term impact.

Be a part of this life-changing opportunity to make a real difference while building bridges of compassion and faith. Together, we can create a brighter future for Manila's children and families.

Join us for a transformative mission trip to Manila, Philippines, as we work to bring hope and practical solutions to the pressing challenges of orphan care. We will join our Santa Rosa campus in partnering church to church and collaborating with local government agencies. Our mission focuses on strengthening families. We'll share the Saddleback vision with our Filipino friends to see every child in a loving, well supported and stable home. Currently there are thousands of children living in institutions and the government has invited us to help equip the church to place children in families. Be a part of this life-changing opportunity to make a real difference while building bridges of compassion and faith. Together, we can create a brighter future for Filipino children and families.
