Mandate, the
Chalmers Center Newsletter


Mandate is the Chalmers Center's newsletter emailed three times a year and also available here on our web site. It educates people on key issues in ministry to the poor as well as the specific approach the Chalmers Center takes in ministry. Mandate also highlights real life stories about what our partners and participants are doing as a result of our training as they bring economic development and spiritual transformation to the poor.

If you have a web site and a particular Mandate article would interest your web site visitors, feel free to link directly to the article. For permission to reprint an article, email Amy Kuenzel at chalmers@covenant.edu. If you have received Chalmers Center training, email us your Chalmers Center story for possible inclusion in a future issue of Mandate.
