Building for Change that Lasts

Would you like your church or business to be seen by the community as a vital part of the health and hope for your community?

When you identify opportunities to act with kindness and compassion in the name of Jesus, how can you identify root causes of need and not just symptoms? Has anyone asked recipients of assistance if such efforts effectively address their real needs?

How do you evaluate whether efforts to assist your community are congruent and balanced with your church’s or business’ purpose and programs? Are these inputs sustainable over the long haul? Which produces the more sustainable result - influencing what people do or what they believe?

In this workshop David Collins assists participants to think more deeply about Strategic Community Engagement and provide a template for evaluating strategic initiatives from three perspectives (a) the individuals involved (b) the church as a whole, and (c) the recipients of the ministry. Church groups will have opportunity to discuss their community engagement dreams/plans within this framework.
