Nehemiah Project
The Nehemiah Project is a Christian Community Development Program in Chisholm:
Key Elements of Christian Community Development
Christian community development is a church-based ministry among the poor.
- Begins with felt needs of the people in the community
- Responds to those needs in a wholistic way
- Is based on clear biblical principles
- Is “time-tested”
- Develops and utilizes leaders from within the community
- Encourages relocation – living among the poor
- Demands reconciliation – people to God and people to people
- Empowers the poor through redistribution – all community members sharing their skills, talents, education, and resources to help each other.
