Book Description
This program is based on the conviction that "churches flourish best when they reach beyond their own walls, and neighborhoods can benefit from the resources and leadership vested in local churches." It aims to: stimulate greater involvement of religious institutions in community revitalization, create new religious community partnerships, strengthen community ministries, and attract new sources of funding for such initiatives. 28 religious institutions and community based organizations received grants and technical assistance. This report presents evaluation findings from the first year of funded activity. Illustrated.
