Our vision is to catalyse the church to develop Empowered Faith Communities with people doing life tough.
Our Purpose
To build and encourage self-sustaining faith-based communities with people on the margins who may feel uncomfortable in existing faith communities.
The Empowered Faith Communities concept centres on community gatherings in and amongst people living in poverty. Empowerment is central to the model, underpinned by proven principles for sustainable, long term flourishing.
We are committed to helping faith-based groups establish Empowered Faith Communities in their context. We are ready to equip you with training, resources and ongoing support.
Empowered Faith Communities is a COACH Network initiative, COACH Network provides community strengthening
programs that empower individuals and families,
breaking generational cycles of poverty and
family breakdown.
