In Canada,
the social, spiritual and communal value of local congregations
to their surrounding neighbourhoods has long been accepted.
The economic value of these communities of faith,
however, is a different matter altogether.
Since 2016, the Halo Canada Project has addressed this question
with studies in more than 80 congregations across the country.
These communities of faith highlight the rich religious diversity of Canada
and the contribution they make to the common good of all Canadians.
