One Thousand Churches Connected is an initiative of the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition designed to bring the message of economic responsibility to families through churches across the country.

The growth of many communities across the country is stifled by a mentality that encourages people to carry large amounts of personal debt. The problem is compounded by overuse of credit cards and playing the lottery, practices that may ultimately result in unnecessary bankruptcies.

In response, the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition has created a Financial Ministry to deliver a message of economic responsibility through the church.
