Does Your Church reflect the community it serves?

For too long, the Sunday morning worship hour has been the most segregated hour in America. In recent year, efforts have been made to change all that. There is a trend toward racial reconciliation and true brotherhood within the Body of Christ. As the communities around them grow more culturally diverse, churches are opening their doors to those who do not share their language and customs.
These efforts are well-intentioned and represent a definite step in the right direction. However, they often result in disappointment, division and resentment. Congregations wind up worse off than they started, convinced that cross-cultural outreach simply doesn't work.
Why? Typically, it's not for the lack of desire. Churches unknowingly repeat the mistakes of others and lose valuable time and momentum playing "catch-up" and searching for solutions. Unfortunately, there are very few models and methodologies available to churches desiring to offer viable ministry within an ethnically-diverse community while remaining relevant to its existing members.

Multi Cultural Ministry is designed to fill that void. Our work is the result of a comprehensive study of 28 major denominations within the greater Los Angeles area. We analyzed the impact of changing demographics upon these churches and reviewed the measures they took to minister to ethnics. This research led to the development of a multifaceted program which has been successfully implemented by numerous congregations. Our strategy is designed to foster understanding, clarify responsibilities, motivate ministry and pre-empt problems.
MCM would be delighted to come along side your church and help navigate your way around the roadblocks that have stopped so many others in their tracks. The result will be a specific plan of action tailored to meet your unique needs. Thanks for stopping by our website and please take a look around. We look forward to interacting with you.
