Building Belonging Congregational Guide

Building Belonging
The Church's Call to Create Community and House Our Neighbors
By John Cleghorn

“With a focus on housing neighbors and building community, the church is uniquely positioned to respond. The call to heal the nation with more housing and enriched communities comes from within and beyond the church.”
–Building Belonging, p. 10
