Baker Hosts 2nd Faith Leaders Meeting

Except for Sunday worship services and week day Bible studies, many people envision the Church’s role in community outreach as largely non-existent.

But while the Church regularly serves the community through a variety of programs and support groups, it has the potential to be more far-reaching – like establishing partnerships with local government.

County Executive Rusher Baker is keenly aware of the vital role the Church can play in strengthening the Prince George’s community and emphasized that during his second quarterly Faith Leaders Meeting held May 17 in Brandywine, Md.

“Our faith institutions work tirelessly everyday to serve their congregants, their communities, and our children,” said Baker. “One of the top priorities for the Baker Administration is to find ways of breaking down our silos and working together with our partners to better connect government to the people we serve.”
