About Us

Better Place gathers church leaders to master the art of “building homes and planting gardens” in their community so that they can add tangible value to their communities, help their neighbors prosper, and open doors to sharing the gospel message of hope in Jesus. 


That’s what God called the Israelites to do in Jeremiah 29:1–7: to “build homes” and “plant gardens” so that their communities would prosper. It was a call to love people physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

The Heart Behind Better Place

Hi! I'm Bryce Baldwin, Executive Director of Rome Community Job Fairs and Lead Pastor of Rome Alliance Church in Rome, New York. I have provided tangible solutions for churches in many contexts over the last decade. I would love the opportunity to connect with you to discover together how your church can make a tangible impact in the community. Churches that add value to their communities by making it a Better Place to live grow, flourish, and thrive in the 21st century.
