- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: PC-46576 A CUP OF BLESSING (First Of Three Photos) NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- Newhallville is a low and middle income section of New Haven which is populated by 15,000, 90 per cent of whom are black. After a 1968 riot, leaders of local black churches decided the community must have a minister to meet its total needs. As a result, CUP was born. The Christian Union Program has gained national attention and support because of its success in ministering to the community. Local churches and religious organizations, several denominations, and Yale Divinity School are all participating. CUP began in one storefront building. Now it has a row of storefronts on a block in Newhallville. One door opens to a daycare center. Another leads to a clothing and food store. A third opens to a book store where both new and used books can be purchased at reasonable prices. A main door is the area for work training and counseling. Other ministries are performed outside the center. They include ministries in a nearby prison, a home for the aged, youth programs and a camp outside town, assisting people to buy groceries, etc. (SEE ALSO RNS PHOTOS PC-46577 & 78) Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO by Don Rutledge (DR-GA-12D-74-DS)
