Project:
The Messiah Baptist Church of Brockton is a predominantly Black, inner-city congregation with a lively group of people. Messiah is located in the heart of downtown Brockton and we have a great concern for the people of the city - the schools, the employment, the banking relationships, the economic and community development. An intern would have to be comfortable with an empowerment ministry.
