The Council for Faith in Action Faith Expressing and Funding Team’s (CFA-FEFT’s) vision, for this fiscal year, is twofold. We will continue our financial giving while encouraging deeper community involvement.
Last year our donations exceeded $15,000. Thank you for this remarkable support. With funding secure, we’re shifting our focus, living our mission: changing the world through generosity, with love at the center.
We will base our community support on four principles:
- We will build relationships with community organizations that support the underserved. We’ll provide more than financial support to groups that are connected to our church as a community or a partner.
- We will continue to support groups with which we already have a relationship (e.g., Food Ministry).
- We will provide emergency support in response to disasters and crises.
- We will build relationships by encouraging church members to attend community events. (e.g. the I AM TRENTON dinner).
Look for more about these initiatives in the coming months. We welcome all who would like to be part of this strategic development and invite you to attend an FEFT gathering.
