Report from Grants tour
Report from Betty Grit, written from Georgia, where she and her husband Nelson are in the middle of a tour of grant recipients. (More reports)
With cheers and cannons from the nearby football stadium at Virginia Tech as a backdrop, we walked to churches in downtown Blacksburg, learning about the history of the city and of the emerging ecumencial collaboration of five congregations. Through a Worship Renewal Grant to Luther Memorial Lutheran Church, representatives of each congregation, the RTT (Renewal Together Team) meet monthly for study and planning. Last weekend they invited other leaders of their congregations to join them for a presentation and discussion with Constance Cherry to talk about what renewal might mean in their congregation. (See page 5 of the Nov. 8 issue of the BPC Newsletter at this link for a report about this gathering.)
