MONADNOCK INTERFAITH PROJECT is a non-profit coalition of congregations, organizations, and individuals from the Monadnock region of southern New Hampshire. We are wholehearted individuals working together to foster interfaith community, understanding, and systemic change that benefits our region. Through the Monadnock Interfaith Project (MIP), people come together to put faith into action.
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
–Margaret Mead
