Module 1

Empowered Faith Communities (EFC) seek to move away from delivering meals from a charitable paradigm alone.

Instead, EFCs aspire to empower people to use their strengths to support one another, taking ownership of their own community. EFCs aim to build a discipling culture where people can learn the words, works and ways of Jesus, and to be and bring the good news to others.
