"I was raised in severe poverty and I remember the important role the church played in helping me overcome my circumstances. This Ministry Resource Development Program is going to help churches reach more children who are experiencing the same hardships that I once did." -Tracy J. Brown

(Richmond, Va.)—Through a partnership with nonprofit church growth consulting group Urban Awareness USA, NCPG and its corporate sponsors are funding a unique two part Ministry Resource Development Program. The first part of NCPG's two step Program is to provide live training and education to churches in 9 cities. These live educational events are designed to teach ministries exactly 1.) how to secure more funding from nongovernment funding sources for ministry, 2.) how to improve administrative operations of ministry and 3.) how to improve the overall effectiveness of ministry. The second component is long term technical assistance. As a part of the program, ministries will receive continuing educational and infrastructure development assistance to ensure they successfully implement what they learned during the education component of the program.

Mark Towell, President of NCPG developed this program as a way to give back to the ministries that do so much for their communities. In a recent interview Mark said; "I'm always inspired when I meet pastors and church leaders that genuinely care about the people they serve. These folks work very hard to make a difference and they deserve the help this program provides. And I can't say enough good things about the generous sponsors who have partnered with us to make all this possible. It's truly a blessing to work with good people who believe in the importance of giving back"

The live educational events are open to the public and will take place in 9 cities around the United States. Each event will feature up to 30 leading experts in church growth & development including; Church Attendance & Membership Growth, Ministry Development, Pastoral Succession Planning, Asset Protection, IRS Audit Prevention for Churches, Church Leadership, Church Conflict Resolution, Church Fund Development, Grant Writing, Capital Campaign, Church Construction, Real Estate Development, Tax Credits, The Use Of Drama & Arts In Ministry, The Use Of Technology In Ministry and dozens more.

The long term technical assistance portion of the program is free to those who attend the live events but has limited availability. The focus of the long term program is ministry growth, grant writing, ministry fund development and ministry administration.

In a recent interview, Tracy J. Brown, CEO of Urban Awareness USA said; "I was raised in severe poverty and I remember the important role the church played in helping me overcome my circumstances. This Ministry Resource Development Program is going to help churches reach more children who are experiencing the same hardships that I once did. So, yes, I'm very excited about this program and deeply honored that Mark asked us to participate."
