FAQ

GENERAL OVERVIEW

Q: Why are we planting churches? 

A: God commands and calls us to GO to the world and to make disciples. One of Prov’s strategies to accomplish this mission is by planting churches. At this time, God has richly blessed us with financial and leadership resources to send and create new Prov churches with our vision and values. 

Q. Do we need more churches in our area?

A: Yes. Current statistics say that fewer than 20% of Americans attend church. This could mean that more than 80% of people in our communities are not coming to church, and may not know they are invited.

Q: Where will these church plants be located? 

A: The first new location will be at Fairview Presbyterian Church, now Providence Fairview, 800 Fairview Rd, Glenmoore, PA 19343.  The 2nd location is TBD. However, we do know that based on our desire to resource these new churches, locations will be no more than 20-30 minutes from Prov West Chester.

Q: Who is involved in the planning of Prov’s Multiplication Vision and Strategy? 

A: Our Multiplication Pastor, Todd Madonna, is leading a team. Decisions will be made at the elder level, the staff level, and the lay leader level. 

Q: What makes them Prov churches? 

A: These new churches will share the Providence name, vision, values, and discipleship strategy. We will be one church family contextualized in new locations with live teaching and music. 

Q. Who do I ask if I have questions about the campaign?  

A: For questions about the fundraising campaign, direct them to Bob Newman  

For questions about the ProvFairview Church plant, direct them to Aaron Chapman  

For questions about multiplication in general, direct them to Todd Madonna   .

Q. How will this impact Providence West Chester? 

A: We will be actively sending together and praying throughout the planting process. Some individuals and families will choose to be sent, and others will remain as senders. Our faith will be stretched and strengthened as a body as we walk through this journey of multiplication.

Q: How is Prov Coatesville connected to this vision? 

A: Strengthening Prov Coatesville and working towards a true Prov family of churches contextualized in multiple locations is among Prov’s primary goals for multiplication.  

ProvFairview INFORMATION

Q: When will our first location launch?  

A: The first gathering will be on April 5th, 2026. 

Q: Who will be leading each new location? 

A: Aaron Chapman has been hired as the Lead Planting Pastor. We are praying for a Core Planting Team who will help come alongside Aaron.

Q: Will there be ProvKids? Youth ministry? 

A: Yes, these will be available for kids, youth, and families. 

Q: How can someone be involved now? 

A: PRAY: Pray about locations, for leadership, for wisdom in all the decisions being made, and pray about how God wants YOU to be involved. We have monthly times of corporate prayer on specified Sundays at Prov.

Q. What do we do if we have further questions? 

A: You can email

TIMES12 - Church Plant Network

Times12 Christian Church Planting Network | Grow Your Church

TIMES12 is a church planting network of church planters, church plants, and sending churches. We are committed to multiplying disciples and churches centered on King Jesus to serve and reach lost friends in our cities, neighborhoods, subcultures, and world.

Equipping church planters is what we do. TIMES12 partners with sending churches to customize the equipping of each church planting pastor's Head, Heart, and Hands. We don’t clone a certain model but are deeply committed to multiplying churches with biblical elements we call Gospel-Centered DNA. That means we center on Jesus and the gospel in all we do as we make new and growing disciples. Healthy leadership matters to us. That’s why we seek to help our partners develop and multiply godly, disciple-making leaders (to stay) and planters (to go).
