For a second time, Mecklenburg Ministries has partnered with the Charlotte Regional Recovery Initiative to bring together those in the faith community with those who have resources to create stronger partnerships and more opportunities for job seekers and our faith-based groups. Over 75 congregations were represented in the overflowing crowd.
The Program included a “State of the City” address from our new Mayor, Anthony Foxx that focused on our economy and the job situation in Charlotte.

City-wide Sermon Xchange
Mecklenburg Ministries and Crossroads Charlotte are co-sponsoring this Sermon Xchange program that aims to bring together diverse congregations to create an exchange of ideas and a call to action. With an overall theme of improving racial and ethnic understanding, the exchanges launched January 15th, 2010, in honor of Martin Luther King weekend. In the spirit of Dr. King, the main objective is to foster connections and conversations across lines of difference including race and religion, and to inspire fellow Charlotteans to join forces to build a better future.
