Others are grounded, mature Christians who simply need to know where various ministries are for various reasons. We are seeking to support everyone who claims Christ as Saviour and Messiah.

Q: Why do you separate "Ethnic" churches from African-American or White churches?
A: African-Americans and "Whites" are from the United States, and therefore are of the same culture. However, other groups, such as Chinese, Arabs, Hispanic, Ethiopians, etc. aren't necessarily United States citizens and therefore have different cultural customs. The same goes for Native Americans ("Indians"), who also have a different cultural base than African-Americans and Whites. Because people within these groups have a certain rapport that only they can understand, we categorize them separately so they can get the most out of their fellowship. (It's much easier to go to a church where others understand you better).
Q: Doesn't this separation of ethnic groups cause divisions in the body of Christ?
A: We don't think so. Although the cultures are diverse, all are brothers and sisters in the body of Christ. We are not promoting separation, instead we are trying to acknowledge the diversity that exists among people, and support the comfort that exists when fellowshipping with others who understand your background. For example, if we, an-English-speaking-couple, were to visit Japan, we would be more comfortable visiting an English speaking church even though we'd still view the Japanese Christians of other churches as our fellow brothers in Christ.
