A fund to help The Urantia Book reader community more effectively spread the depth and breadth of the revelation
¶ What’s new?
The Urantia Book Fellowship wants to report on the “Second Miler Grant Program.” We launched a grant program in 2020 to support revelation development projects created by Urantia Book readers and communities worldwide.
Since the announcement of our pilot program, we received and review ed many diverse and creative proposals. With our successful pilot completed, we are now moving to open this fund to all members and bona fide Urantia Book readers and communities worldwide.
Do you have an idea of new or better ways to share the teachings of The Urantia Book?
Whether large or small, whether you are working alone or with your study group, society, or an informal group of other readers, you can apply for financial support from our Second Miler Grant Program. Go to our website, urantiabook.org/About-The-Urantia-Book-Fellowship#second-miler.
Annual program funding comes from investing a sustainable portion of Fellowship assets into the ideas and initiative of readers who are willing to go the second mile so that the world may share our gift of revelation (The Urantia Book).
