Cox, editor “We want to save our churches, not close them,” Archdeacon Thomas Bruttell told the congregation at Church of the Resurrection on Pentecost. His words echoed a statement by Bishop Leo Frade at the forum on “The Future of Black Congregations” a day ear- lier: “There is no plan to close churches!” At a time when changing demograph- ics and economic decline are threatening the survival of many smaller congrega- tions of all denominations, the Diocese of Southeast Florida is committed to helping its struggling churches find creative ways to thrive and grow. The Nehemiah Process, now in its sev- enth year, has involved more than 50 con- gregations in a transformational process of discernment, training and implementation of a ministry plan for congregational growth. As a direct result of this process, in the past six months three congregations that had been on mission status (receiving aid and/or assessment reduction from the diocese) have become self-supporting. In February the Executive Board approved Photo by C. M. Guerrero/El Nueveo Herald the restoration of Todos los Santos, Miami, to parish status, and in May, All REBIRTH AT CHURCH OF THE RESURRECTION Saints’, Jensen Beach, and All Souls’, A standing-room-only congregation helps Church of the Resurrection, Biscayne Park, celebrate Pentecost.
