Develop Community Ministry

Change is inevitable – even for the church! Yes, we may have held the same message for 2000-odd years, but the method of delivery has to evolve.  The role of the church must vary to meet the changing needs of the community.   Effective change requires clear direction and an understanding of the needs of the community and the local church or even the denomination.

This particular unit “Develop Community Ministry” utilizes the Community Service unit CHCCDE005 Develop and Support Relevant Community Resource” as it is ideally suited to developing the skills required for effective research and the development of a ministry.
