...It is a network of ethnically, socially, and strategically diverse church plants throughout the St. Louis metro area in both Illinois and Missouri.  We are united together around historically baptistic principles as well as the “great commission” directive of going to all peoples and making disciples.   

It began with the church planting initiative of the Saint Louis Metro Baptist Association; thusly our planters are in agreement with the Baptist Faith and Message.

What Is the Goal of PLANT Saint Louis?

The goal of the network is to see an explosion of "gospel points" through the city and metro area.  The goal is for planters to be a part of a "band of brothers" where "team" is central and the only star is JESUS.   We seek to assist one another in planting evangelistic churches with the never changing Gospel in an ever changing culture of both St. Louis and the world.

Who Leads PLANT Saint Louis?

PLANT Saint Louis is led by Darren Casper who is also the Associate Executive Director of the Saint Louis Metro Baptist Association.
