Princeton Seminary receives $1.25 million for young adult ministry ‘Collaboratory’
(RNS) Princeton Theological Seminary has received a $1.25 million grant from Lilly Endowment Inc. to fund The Ministry Collaboratory @ Princeton (the Collaboratory), which will disseminate and build upon findings from Princeton Seminary’s recently completed young adult innovation initiative, The Zoe Project. The Collaboratory will also work with various partners to develop practical resources from this data, to help congregations collaborate with young adults to lead change in their communities.
Princeton Seminary is one of 12 organizations receiving grants through the second phase of Lilly Endowment’s Young Adult Initiative. The aim of the initiative is to deepen the religious lives of young adults (ages 23 to 29) and to engage them more fully in the life of Christian congregations. Lilly Endowment supported creation of The Zoe Project with a grant made to the seminary in 2016 through the Young Adult Initiative’s first phase.
