Trinity-Rauschenbusch depends heavily on volunteers to carry on its wide-ranging ministry. A major source of volunteers over the years has been the Action Reconciliation program of the German Evangelical Church. For over two decades, the Peace Corps-like program has sent German youth and young adults to assist Trinity-Rauschenbusch for two-year periods of service. Following World War II, Action Reconciliation started helping the German people reconcile with its former enemies. The Volunteers in Mission program the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) also provides people for service at Trinity-Rauschenbusch. nyc.jpg (9092 bytes)
