ABOUT MIP and WHO WE ARE

Monadnock Interfaith Project is a non-profit coalition of congregations, organizations, and individuals working together to foster interfaith community, understanding, and systemic change that benefits the Monadnock region of New Hampshire. We are spiritually motivated people of multiple faiths (and no particular faith tradition) who believe in caring for one another starts with change in our own backyard. Through the Monadnock Interfaith Project (MIP), people in the Monadnock region come together to put faith into action.

How Monadnock Interfaith Project (MIP) Began

After a workshop on faith-informed community organizing, local people of faith traditions from Harrisville, Jaffrey, Peterborough, Marlborough, Keene, and Walpole put their heads, hearts, and hands together to make a more coordinated, regional positive impact.

MIP was formalized as a nonprofit in November 2017 and appointed its first official board of directors, the MIP Guiding Council. MIP continues as an organization of community advocates, faith leaders, and whole-hearted citizens responding to contemporary challenges in the Monadnock region. From sponsoring interfaith events and book discussions, to local advocacy, to doing community wellness checks during the Covid pandemic, to shepherding the Monadnock Regional Development Fund into existence, MIP has been vitallly involved in the welfare of our society. With your help and assistance, we will continue to make a difference in the future.
