Christian A. Schwarz and Christoph Schalk of Natural Church Development International have announced that
FORDelm Inc. has been selected as the new NCD National Partner for Canada, effective immediately. The current
National Partner, The Leadership Centre Willow Creek Canada (TLCWCC), is working to ensure a smooth transition
to FORDelm.
TLCWCC has provided considerable energy and focus to church growth in Canada during its tenure as the National Partner,
and will continue to do so through the other important ministries it represents. NCD International appreciates the
foundation laid by TLCWCC for the new generation of work with NCD. Ian Campbell, the previous Director of NCD Canada,
has returned to Australia to continue his work with NCD International. He will continue to be involved with NCD Canada,
both in terms of the National Partner transition and then the strategic engagement of NCD Canada with developments
internationally.
FORDelm is currently the Organic Quality Management (OQM) National Partner for Canada, and will bring together into
one partnership both the church and para-church arms of NCD International’s work. FORDelm is a strategic growth
consultancy across many sectors and as the NCD National Partner, will take responsibility for all aspects of the
ongoing development of NCD in Canada, including training, coaching and distribution of the Natural Church Development
Survey, books and other resources.
Bill Bickle is the Principal of FORDelm. He brings a wide range of skills and experience to the role, and is passionate
about the NCD paradigm as an effective way to grow fruitful, healthy churches. Christoph Schalk indicates that FORDelm
is well positioned to help introduce the next generation of NCD to the Canadian Church, stimulating health and growth
across denominational, cultural, linguistic and theological boundaries.
