Covenant Members
In 2024 CWS transitioned to a Covenant Membership model. Covenant Membership represents a new way for historical members of CWS to engage with each other and the organization in meaningful, impactful and realistic ways. Covenant Members work together with CWS to find practical ways to engage their faith communities in the work of transforming communities through just and sustainable responses to hunger, poverty, displacement and disaster. They also participate in gatherings throughout the year to reflect and organize on key issues impacting our shared work and priorities. Learn more about Covenant Membership here.
