A Program Development project will provide an opportunity to use applied research methodology to church ministry. Each student will conduct a comprehensive assessment of a church’s ministry to couples and/or families. You will choose whether you want to (1) Assess an existing ministry (program evaluation) or (2) Assess a need and develop a program to address this need within the congregation or community (needs assessment/ program development project). Guidelines for each type of project can be found in the Course Materials section of Blackboard.
