As we head into 2013, it is important to realize that “Apart from God we can do nothing”. If this initiative is not bathed heavily in prayer, we cannot expect a Supernatural move of God. I know that this is in many cases a very basic statement, but I am impressed to share it. As you look through the charts, maps, and the church planting goals, you will see a God sized task that is humanly impossible. As a result of this task, I ask that you prayerfully intercede on behalf of the work here.
As this journey continues to unfold, I have been drawn to Esther 4:14…”Who can say but that you have been elevated to the palace FOR JUST SUCH A TIME AS THIS”. As Esther prepared to meet the king she fasted and prayed for three days. Although scripture does not record the exact prayer of Esther, I believe it focused on four areas: favor, wisdom, courage, and faith. As you pray for us, pray for favor, wisdom, courage and faith for all our pastors, planters, and denominational leaders. I have also been led to pray specifically that God would give us favor with the lost. As a result, I have prayed John 16:8: “And when He comes, He will convince the world of its sin, and of God’s righteousness, and of the coming judgment.” I pray every day that the Holy Spirit will do this for the hundreds of thousands of lost men, women, boys, and girls that live in the Metro Cleveland area. Finally, I pray Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3:30: “Now Glory to God! By His mighty power at work within us, He is able accomplish infinitely more that we would ever dare to ask or hope”.

The Cleveland Hope Baptist Association is a network of 46 Southern Baptist Churches that reside in Cuyahoga, Lake, Geauga counties. The population of these 3 counties is 1.6 million people.
Across the Midwest region there is a ratio of 1 SBC church to about 12,500 people. Within the Cleveland Hope Association the ratio is 1 SBC church to about 42,500 people. Within the city of Cleveland this ratio rises to 1 church per 47,000 people. But what would happen if….
• By 2020 this ratio could be reduced to ONE to 5-6,000 people • The Gospel through the planting of new churches saturated our area • New believers were trained to become indigenous church planters • An anointed movement of God swept through the city of Cleveland • Thousands of believers were united in prayer for this effort • Each domain of the city is touched and transformed by the Gospel • The city and its leadership were transformed by the Gospel • God answered our prayer and does a work beyond what we could ever
ask, think, dream, or dare to ask When a natural disaster occurs there is usually a point of primary impact. We call
this point the Epicenter. If we are to have a supernatural movement, our Epicenter will be the city of Cleveland with strong ripple impact effects in the area 16 miles from the center and then out into the outlying areas of Lake and Geauga counties.
A. Epicenter: Cleveland- The population for the city of Cleveland is 427,694 people. Currently within the city we have 9 SBC churches. This would mean a ratio of 1 SBC church to 47,000 people. In order to reduce the ratio to 1 to 5000 we would need to plant 76 churches by 2020. (Since over 50% of this population is African-American, many of these churches would need to be either African-American or intentionally multi-cultural.)
B. Epicenter: Ripple One- contains the remainder of Cuyahoga County- The combined population for the listed cities in this area is about 870,000 people. Currently for this area we have 26 SBC churches. This would mean a ratio of about 1 SBC church for every 24,000 people. If we would reduce this ratio to 1 SBC church for every 6000 people, this would involve planting about 119 new churches by 2020.
C. Epicenter: Ripple Two- contains Lake County and Geauga County The combined population of this area is about 315,000 people; covering 20-40 miles from the city. Currently in this region we have 11 SBC churches. This would give us a ratio of 1 to 29K. If we were to reduce this ratio in this area to 1 to 5000, this would involve planting 52 new churches by 2020.
This would give us a goal of 247 churches planted by 2020.
