CONGREGATIONAL DEVELOPMENT GRANT 2018
Community Arts Program
Buffalo Presbyterian Church designed an opportunity in the Spring of 2018, to engage further with newly retired and elderly through fine arts. In May 2018, an application was sent to the Committee on Congregational Vitality, specifically requesting funds in the area of Congregational Development.
In August, 2018. BPC was awarded a Congregational Development Grant. This grant, Ministry through the Arts will allow us to engage further with newly retired and retired people through fine arts events.
Once a month, art events are offered at BPC for people both within our congregation and our community. These events have local instructors teach/demonstrate various activities focused on connecting our church to our community, including a strong partnership with the Buffalo Art Guild.
