  significant needs in the community that the faith
  community should and can be addressing
• a. Direct Service Needs (Generally refers to
  food, shelter, tutoring, transportation etc)

  correcting the causes of the above and deals with
  public policies e.g. health care, tax policies,
  education policies, etc.)
• c. Race Relations Needs
• d. Inter-religious affairs Needs
• 3. Our congregation has identified a need for
  better information about the priority needs of
  the community particularly in the following
  areas.
• 4. To build our capacity for servicing the
  community we would like ideas for communicating
  service and learning opportunities among the
  members of our congregations e.g. how to use all
  of the mediums available, how are other
  congregations meeting this need.
