In order for this work to have the greatest impact, we have crafted several different pathways for interested\u00a0faith communities to participate in\u00a0the Innovative Ministry Partnership.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 15, 2018 our Innovative Ministry Partnership Application\u00a0was\u00a0made available for faith communities with a willingness and capacity to explore their call into deeper ministry with young adults.\u00a0Applications for Track 1 opportunities closed Apr. 15, 2018.\u00a0Still interested? We\u00a0accepts Track 3 applications on a rolling basis.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Innovation Ministry Partner\u00a0Faith Communities – Track 1 (Closed)<\/strong><\/h4>\n
    \n
  • Work with the Riverside Innovation Hub for\u00a0four years from the summer of 2018 through the summer of 2022.<\/li>\n
  • Year One (summer 2018 \u2013 summer 2019): Commit to working 15-20 hours a week with a Riverside Innovation Hub young adult Innovation Coach who will walk with your faith community through a year-long process of reimagining its ministry with young adults.<\/li>\n
  • Submit a sub-grant proposal at the end of Year One to the Riverside Innovation Hub to receive\u00a0$25,000-$30,000 for innovative approaches to ministry with young adults in your context over the following two years.<\/li>\n
  • Years Two \u2013 Three (summer 2019 \u2013 summer 2021): Manage the funds granted to your\u00a0faith community and implement your plan for engaging young adults in your context in new and innovative ways.<\/li>\n
  • Year Four (summer 2021 \u2013 summer 2022): Work with the Riverside Innovation Hub to evaluate the\u00a0three previous years of\u00a0learning and creating in order to learn what worked and what did not.\u00a0Faith communities will also work with the Riverside Innovation Hub to share collective findings through written projects and seminars.<\/li>\n
  • Attend regular learning cohort meetings and trainings offered by the Riverside Innovation Hub throughout the four years of partnership with the Hub.<\/li>\n
  • Track 1 faith communities need to be located within a 30 minute drive of Minneapolis in order to be accessible to our Innovation Coaches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Innovative Ministry Partner\u00a0Faith Communities – Track\u00a02 (Closed)<\/strong><\/h4>\n
      \n
    • Identical to Track 1 with two main differences\u2026<\/li>\n
    • First: In\u00a0Year One, faith communities will identify their own<\/em> young adult Innovation Coach from their\u00a0community to guide the faith community through the work of reimagining its ministry with young adults. The faith community’s Innovation Coach will participate in training at Augsburg during the weeks of August 6-24, 2018 with other Riverside Innovation Hub coaches, be a part of an Innovation Coach cohort, and invited to attend all workshops and training aimed at equipping Innovation Coaches in Year One.<\/li>\n
    • Second: No funding will be available to Track 2 faith communities. However, they will participate in all other aspects of the partnership with Track 1 partners. They will be included in all training & learning cohorts throughout the partnership, create their own ministry proposal in Year One, implement and adapt their ministry in Years Two and Three, and participate in evaluating the learnings in Year Four.<\/li>\n
    • Faith communities may choose to be considered for Track 2 on their own because they believe they have the resources internally to support the work or they may be located more than 30 minutes from the Twin Cities. The Riverside Innovation Hub may choose to invite faith communities who apply to be Track 1 Partners to consider Track 2 based on the fact that there are a limited number of spots available for Track 1.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Innovative Ministry Associate Faith Communities – Track 3 (Closed)<\/strong><\/h4>\n
        \n
      • Some\u00a0faith communities may share a deep passion and curiosity for this work but not currently be in the position to dedicate the needed resources of time, leadership, and potentially funding to commit to a four-year partnership with the Riverside Innovation Hub. An Associate Faith Community is committed to following the project, eager to be a part of the learning the flows from it, and willing to commit to being a regular participant in the learning opportunities offered through the Riverside Innovation Hub.<\/li>\n
      • Associate\u00a0Faith Communities would commit to attending Hub Seminars and workshops as the project unfolds and have opportunities to learn alongside the efforts taking shape at Partner Congregations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
