20K In Funding for Presbymergent Churches

Presbymergent: 20K In Funding for Presbymergent Churches

Sherry Britton in the NCD department in Louisville has asked us to share the following exciting news with all our presbymergent friends:

The director of Evangelism has just found $20,000 in his budget designated for emergent churches.  He would like to receive proposals for the use of the funds. 

Following are some additional details:

• Funding is open to both churches and organizations as long as they are “PCUSA based.”
• Deadline for submission of proposals is October 15th, and the award would be made in November.
• They’re looking for a narrative about the program to be funded, the precise amount requested, and the expected outcome.

Proposals should be mailed to Sherry Britton, 100 Witherspoon St., Louisville, KY 40202 or emailed to sbritton[at]ctr.pcusa.org or faxed to 502-569-8002.

Hmmm… Interesting idea, but I confess that I wonder what will constitute "emergent churches" in the minds of the grant makers.
