Hispanic/Latino Incubator

The Northwest Texas Conference provides the Incubator Model to the pastors of our Conference. The Hispanic/Latino Ministry Committee adopted the model “Hispanic/Latino Incubator” and adapted it to the Hispanic/Latino reality in our Conference. The goal of the Hispanic/Latino Incubator is to create an environment in which spiritual leaders and ideas are born, nurtured, and developed.

One of the guiding of the Hispanic/Latino Incubator is that effective leaders. Leaders who create vital congregations learn how to discover, develop, and deploy passionate spiritual leaders. This same principle applies in the growth of Hispanic/Latino Incubators themselves. Once a group of leaders experiences a Hispanic/Latino Incubator they are then to start another Hispanic/Latino Incubator.

Multi-cultural Incubator

Following the Incubator Model and having the Aldersgate UMC in Lubbock as a partner church, a new multi-cultural congregation or church has begun to take shape for the city of Lubbock. We believe this model will be able to be used in a community with a varied ethnic makeup and a community which is growing in size.

The multi-cultural Incubator has as its purpose to raise up strong leaders in the Lord who are willing to see the presence of God moving to create a new congregation in the city of Lubbock for the Glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

In an Incubator participants make a commitment to meet a total  eight hours a month for twelve months. In the process, the Incubator participants develop a Ministry Action Plan (MAP) for their congregations.
