Rev. Ronnie Farmer
Design for Cultural Exchange and Racial Reconciliation Among Children
2020-21: This project will help shape the racial consciousness of children and youth in a way that would orient them toward loving their neighbor rightly. The project is also a call to churches in their community to a new or renewed sense of commitment to racial reconciliation, and a way to create spaces for cultural exchange within its preschool between children and leaders of color by providing a teaching opportunity for an immigrant or Native Spanish Speaker.
Cultural Exchange and Trauma Informed Care for Children
2021-22: This project will continue work to help shape the racial consciousness of children and youth in a way that would orient them toward loving their neighbor rightly. This is a renewal grant.
Ronnie serves as the director of the Strengthening Ministry with Children Coordination Program at Indiana Wesleyan University. He was formerly pastor of REAL Community Covenant Church and led the DREAM Preschool Academy.
In the early years before we had grant categories, we supported a number of grantees doing innovative ministry in cities across North America. Our grants provided support for local practices and initiatives to explore ways to connect deeper with their communities and congregations.
