Love Mercy Do Justice
How We Help Fix a Broken World
Criminal Justice
Alongside partners throughout the denomination, we work together to educate, equip, connect, and empower congregations to be the hands and feet of Christ in the midst of the complexities of the criminal justice system.
Ministry Development
We help your congregation or organization imagine creative approaches to transformational community development work in such areas as youth empowerment, financial literacy, returning citizen re-entry, living wage employment, and a wide array of other targeted and impactful initiatives. Ministry development grants are also available for Covenant churches that are responding to the needs of their community.
Racial Righteousness
We are commissioned to make God’s name known and love shown throughout the world. Our racial righteousness and reconciliation ministries unpack what this looks like within a divided world that has other principles and priorities. We offer Bible studies, immersive discipleship experiences, and congregational learning opportunities to help churches understand the biblical and theological basis for racial righteousness and reconciliation, love their neighbors and be the light of Christ in their communities.
