We are striving to live and proclaim a faithful gospel witness in the midst of this rapidly changing cultural and political landscape. Some of our healthiest and most vibrantly growing congregations are ethnic, racially diverse and comprised of many immigrants. A significant tension for many immigrant families is the need to assimilate to thrive in the US while also maintaining cherished cultural values. This is especially a challenge for the second and third generations.
