Who We Are

A Little Bit of History…

Founded in 1992, Willow Creek Association (WCA) is a not-for-profit Christian organization that exists to maximize the transformative power of the local church. Our vision is to see every local church reach its full redemptive potential — becoming an unbridled conduit for the transforming power of Jesus Christ. In short, we provide vision, inspiration, connection, tools, training, resources, and venues for church leaders like you to learn from and support one another.

Serving Leaders Worldwide…

For nearly 20 years, the WCA has developed a respected history of excellence and innovation in serving local churches and their leaders. We're privileged to serve alongside 7,000 Member Churches representing more than 90 denominations and training leaders in 85 countries. Over the course of a year 15,000 churches engage with our vision, training, and resources.

Bill Hybels, Chairman of the Board @BillHybels

"When God transforms the life of just one leader, that leader can transform a church. When one church is transformed, you can transform a community. And… eventually the entire world is affected with the positive, life-changing power of Jesus Christ and the restoring work of His people." - Bill Hybels

Jim Mellado, WCA President @JimMellado

"I am passionate about what can happen when God captures the heart of a faith community and it becomes a life-transforming agent to its community and the world as He intended." - Jim Mellado

 

Church Partnership…

Connection with an under-resourced community can change your congregation's perspective on faith and the challenges of the worldwide Church. These relationships provide a spiritual and emotional connection for your congregation and will open doors to great serving opportunities. See the long-term impact of these church partnerships in their lives and yours.
