Abstrakt

A model for congregational development is described which is based on small groups, organized through natural affinity, which practice spiritual reflection and lay ministry. The author adapted the paradigm of base Christian communities in Central America for a Unitarian Universalist church in Hillsboro, Oregon. Ministries developed include: English as a second language, a community garden with Hispanic and Anglo participants, and a 'no on nine' campaign to promote gay and lesbian rights. The project's conclusion is that the struggle for meaning and hope is the middle class's counterpart to the struggle for justice and hope waged by the poor.
