Church Buildings for Collaborative Partnerships

The Church Buildings for Collaborative Partnerships (CBCP) project offers an exciting opportunity to increase the impact of all Episcopal faith communities in the state of Indiana. The CBCP helps parishes increase vitality and serve mission by:

  • Making the most of their buildings and assets and

  • Developing new and strong community partnerships

The first congregations to participate started the nine-month process in 2021. Clergy and lay leaders from all 82 Episcopal congregations in Indiana will be invited to participate as the project continues through 2023. The project is a collaboration between the Episcopal diocese of Indianapolis and Northern Indiana, Indiana Landmarks and Partners for Sacred Places. This project is funded by a Thriving Congregations grant from Lilly Endowment.
