Waco Church Swap Tool Kit

Ramona Curtis and Mia Moody at the Fred Batts Leadership Luncheon 

Ramona Curtis and Mia Moody-Ramirez, Ph.D., presented the Church Swap Took Kit at the Fred Batts Leadership Luncheon on December 10, 2012. 

The presentation was a follow-up to the 2011 Church Swap during which the two joined several other community members in a racial reconciliation project titled, A Grassroots Approach to Dismantling the Most Segregated Hour in America. The project was funded partially by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, The Waco Foundation and the Waco Community Race Relations Coalition. 

The Church Swap tool kit is designed to help other organizations and institutions create dialogue among people of all races using a church swap. It describes a grassroots approach to dismantling the most segregated hour in America. Its contents may be modified and adapted to meet each group’s personal needs. 

The Fred Batts Leadership Luncheon is a forum that is held every Monday at noon at the Bledsoe-Miller Recreation Center. It is coordinated by Commissioner Lester Gibson and his wife Coque Gibson.
