Starting a new city ministry of Priority Associates is an exciting leap of faith. There are many factors involved in assessing whether a city might be ready to launch a marketplace ministry.

As a first step, many individuals develop a personal ministry that starts to impact those around them. They get excited that God is using them and others to make a difference.

Or it could be that a core team of marketplace professionals has already come together and the mission and vision of Priority Associates is what God has put on their hearts as well.

In launching a city ministry a higher level of commitment and organization are needed to launch and sustain a city-wide movement. Therefore, this process is more involved in the initial phases of both the city, the leadership pool in the city, the availability and teachability of potential leaders. Additionally, Priority Associates assesses their ability to resource the potential new city based on other projects and developments that are going on at the time.

Here are some of the common questions that initial arise.

• What are the next steps if I want to develop PA in my city?
• Who can be a Leader of PA? What are you looking for?
• What is the City Model? How is it used?
• What is the time frame to build a PA ministry?

Once a determination is made that the city can be launched at this time, a city leadership team will be further coached in the areas of

• Personal Ministry Development
