The Matthew 28 Initiative is simply Susquehanna Conference’s current effort to help mid-sized
congregations (c.75-200) be faithful and effective in making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

It is based on what we’ve done in the past and builds us toward where we believe God wants us in the future.
More than 75 congregations have gone through this process. Many of those congregations and the
communities around them are experiencing the benefits of the initiative. Most have seen decline or plateau
ended and numeric and spiritual growth beginning. I would invite all pastor and congregations
of this size to consider being part of the M28 Initiative.
