Allow us to introduce ourselves.
We’re Always Forward—the church planting initiative of the ACNA. Our mission is to help every province become a church planting movement.
Specifically, we aim to help you plant churches that are
- Gospel-centered
- Sacramental
- Missional
How can we help you?
We resource church leaders and church planters in a variety of ways:
- Our podcast
- Dan Alger’s book
- Training intensives
- Assessments
- Our conference
1. The Always Forward Podcast
We release biweekly episodes on all things sacramental, missional, and church planting.
2. Word & Sacrament: Ancient Traditions for Modern Church Planting
Dan Alger’s new book explores how the rich traditions of liturgical worship are a gift to the work of starting new churches. It releases on May 1st.
3. The Church Plant Training Intensive
The CPTI is a four-day, in-person training that consists of teaching with our instructors and discussion with your peers. You'll receive tools and frameworks to help you plant in a way that's both fruitful in your context, faithful to Jesus, and that follows an Anglican perspective.

4. Assessments
One of the most overlooked aspects of preparing to plant a church is assessment. In this process, our assessors help a church planter deeply explore his or her fit for this particular work and affirm or clarify their particular calling.
