Faith-Rooted ABCD Community of Practice Group

Meets bi-monthly every third Tuesday @ 2pm EST

This NEW Community of Practice (CoP) is a group of faith-rooted individuals working in the areas of mercy, justice, and community development, who have a desire to learn from, network with, and share stories, experiences, tools and challenges with one another. Using Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) principles, we’ll discover faith as an asset as we build on the strengths in our neighborhoods and communities. Click HERE for more information. 

Sponsored by the ABCD Institute and co-hosted by World Renew, Episcopal Relief & Development and Embrace Communities. 

Mercy and Justice Network

Meets bi-monthly, beginning November 8 @ 7pm EST

If you’re involved in mercy and justice ministries within the church (deacons, outreach ministry leaders, community transformation leaders, service leaders), this is for you!  Bring questions, share and listen to stories, and discover resources together. We’ll be guided by World Renew staff and other local leaders.
