Asian American Congregational Leadership Survey
2024: The Asian American Congregational Leadership Survey project will focus on generating and analyzing urban Asian American church data taken from the “National Survey of Asian American (AA) Congregational Leadership Practices,” which started in 2022 and is on-going. This work is being done as a collaborative effort with Baylor University and Wheaton College’s Billy Graham Center Global Diaspora Institute. A second point of action will be exploring a potential Phase II survey based on ISAAC’s 6,000-church database with a national working team of partners, and revising the survey questions based on the team’s set of questions and interests.

Congregational and Community grants provide support for urban pastors, churches, faith-based community organizations, and theological institutions to share resources, ideas, and practices for life-giving ministry in cities across North America. Typically, we invite those who have not previously had access to resources or grant funding.
