Public advocacy is the next logical step.
It is a practical way to translate our values and principles into local policies and laws that enhance the quality of community life. To help students experience what it means to be a healing presence in a local community as participants in developing public policy. To provide information and resources for organizing for effective public ministry. To train students to assume the initial leadership needed to lead others into public responsibilities. Acquaintance with urban religious and political leaders.
