DonateChurch.com is a project to take dying churches who see the vision of re-planting their dying church to help start a new church plant. These churches believe the gospel needs continue to the generations to come. Like the parable of the mustard seed, they willingly die in order that new life may come.
Recent American church statistics show:
· In America, 3500 – 4000 churches close their doors each year
· Half of all churches last year did not add one new member through conversion growth
· Churches lose an estimated 2,765,000 people each year to nominalism and secularism
· Approximately 98 million people are under the age of 25 in the United States, and those between the ages of 18 and 25 are the least likely to attend a church
