Lead
Middle Collegiate Church is a multiethnic/multiracial church. We believe leadership is rooted in individual spiritual practices and nurtured in a spiritual community. From the planning of our worship celebrations to adult education, it is part of our mission to grow leaders and deploy activists for racial justice, economic justice, and LGBTI justice. If you are outside of New York City, our worship celebrations stream live each Sunday at 11:15 am (EST).
We are in a close partnership with The Middle Project, a non-profit institute that prepares ethical leaders for a just society. Each year The Middle Project produces The Leading Edge Conference for clergy and lay leaders to learn skills to build multiethnic/multiracial congregations.The focus of the 2012 Leading Edge Conference will be: Igniting Social Justice through Worship and the Arts. The plenaries will equip leaders with tools on how to craft art-infused worship, inspire social justice, create change, share your message in the media, reach Millennials, and develop other leaders.
The Middle Project also offers an interfaith Leadership Laboratory for Young Adults (ages 20-40). The leadership laboratory teaches young professionals how to navigate conflict, create change, community organize, assess personal leadership strengths, understand race and culture, and engage in spiritual practices. The curriculum was partially informed by research by the Public Religion and Research Institute’s study on Millennials, faith, and social justice.
