Parish Collective is a Chicago-based nonprofit focused on helping local churches and neighborhood communities live out the church in everyday life. It pursues this by telling stories to make the movement visible, celebrating ordinary contributors, and bringing people together online and in person for shared learning through gatherings and learning communities. The organization emphasizes neighborhood-oriented faith as a means to address injustices and foster healing and transformation in communities. Its approach is guided by five core principles: leadership by practitioners, learning from on-the-ground stories, cross-traditional collaboration for belonging and innovation, a commitment to equity, and reliance on the Spirit for transformation. In July 2025, Parish Collective participated in Inhabit 2025, reflecting ongoing engagement with broader practitioner networks.
