General Info
The Institute for Community Engagement is Wesley Theological Seminary's presence in downtown Washington, D.C. The institute sits at the crossroads of many influences: Downtown urban congregations seeking to remain relevant to a gentrifying community A neighborhood where homeless people and urban professionals cross paths but seldom engage A terminus for Washington's "K Street" and its legions of power brokers at the foot of Capitol Hill where elected leaders legislate A place where Jesus will manifests God’s glory only if as the church can “turns itself inside-out” and becomes a force in the public square A place where participating in the Reign of God requires teaching, learning and practicing social ministry entrepreneurship
