 William "Bill" Malick’s early ministry years were marked by successfully turning around three struggling ministries in Northern Indiana with The Missionary Church. Next came church planting in Florida followed by being recruited to establish church planting regionally as a recruiter, coach and developer in the Western U.S., again with The Missionary Church. Bill led the planting of 12 churches, between 1988 and 1994. It was during this time that he founded the Church Multiplication Training Center (CMTC) and Church Planter BootCamps. Malick funded and commissioned the writing of the definitive training manual for church planting, The Church Planter’s Toolkit by Dr. Steve Ogne and Dr. Bob Logan. www.cmtcmultiply.org

The CMTC was the first nationally recognized church planter training. It launched in October 1992. Over the next fifteen years The CMTC grew to over 30 events annually across the U.S. with regular participation from 40 denominations in English, Spanish and Korean languages. More than a dozen denominationally specific planter training programs were franchised by CMTC including; The Assemblies of God, Foursquare, The Christian & Missionary Alliance and the Evangelical Free. The CMTC also provided materials and inspiration for the Southern Baptist’s Basic Training. By the early 2000’s, 7,000 planters and spouses were trained and many coached at CMTC Church Planter BootCamps. in the year 2000, through two CMTC associates, The CMTC encouraged and financially and by curriculum contributed to the launching of The Multiplication Network under the leadership of founder and President, Juan Wagenveld. www.multiplicationnetwork.org. This network reaches across Central and South America and beyond with training. In 2019 the network passed 5,500 verifiable church planters trained in 45 countries. Malick is committed to giving away and multiplying ministry for more production capacity. Now he has turned his attention to the restoration of churches.

Since in 2002, Bill has served as the church planting director and then District Superintendent in The Christian & Missionary Alliance for Southern California, Arizona and New Mexico. It is there that Bill founded Fresh Start Churches, after piloting the restart of seven churches in his region. Since then he has been influencing and training for Fresh Starts in different regions of the US. This grant will be extremely effective for the multiplication and spread of Fresh Start Churches as it partners with The GO Center to carry the message and provide the know-how and coaching to restore and revitalize churches being replanted to multiply.
