The New Worshiping Communities Seed Grant, offered through the Presbyterian Mission Agency, helps start a new “1001” worshiping community and supports its first year of ministry. The funding focuses on the beginning of a community’s worshiping life, providing seed support for launching the community and carrying out ministry during that initial year.
The grant is listed among the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Mission Program Grants for Worshiping Communities, part of the church’s broader support for mission, ministry, and education. It is directed toward the startup stage of a new worshiping community rather than general support for an established congregation.
