East Durham Vital Worship Movement
The East Durham Vital Worship Movement (EDVWM) is a cohort of five churches who are partnering in a year-long project of connecting worship with community impact. Through learning experiences, reflection times, and collaborative worship services, the EDVWM hopes to cultivate worship that is present and responsive to the people and realities of their neighborhood in East Durham. The program is made possible through a Vital Worship Grant from the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship, Grand Rapids, Michigan, with funds provided by Lilly Endowment, Inc.
