The focus for this research in ministry was to determine whether divided and isolated small inner-city churches could bond together to practice effective community ministry. To achieve this goal, an alliance was formed and participants were engaged in unified multi-denominational and multi-cultural ministries such as prayer services, social gatherings and worship services. Together the practicing churches took the presence of God into the community in the form of practical ministry: cleanup, vacation Bible school, and worship service in a city park. The findings indicate that the participants from the alliance churches were bonded by the process and that meaningful unified community ministry took place.
