"To equip church leaders, local church pastors, and lay leaders to transition their churches into multicultural ministries."

Our History

Multi Cultural Ministry came into existence as a result of Art Lucero's observations in the late seventies that 1.) Churches died because of the changes demographics of their community; 2.) and, Churches experienced tragic relational breakdowns between members of the host church and a renting ethnic church.

Multi Cultural Ministry's President & Founder, Rev. Art Lucero, studied twenty-eight of the major denominations serving in the greater Los Angeles area to determine the impact of the changing demographics upon these churches and the measures taken to minister to the ethnics in their communities. This research led to the development of the initial strategy to promote multicultural local churches.

As Director of Ethnic Ministries for Bible Church Mission he implemented this strategy to assist churches in hosting an ethnic church plant. Over a period of six years seventeen churches participated. Many churches attempted this task on their own without assistance from us. Most struggled and others failed. The lessons learned strengthened our resolve to walk a local church through the process to avoid the seven fatal errors Art identified in multicultural ministry. The successes and failures we experienced led to the strategy that MCM employs to prepare churches for reaching the nations among us. MCM continues to study methods employed by others to stay on the cutting edge of multicultural local church ministry.
