Mission Statement

The goal and mission of the Multicultural Concerns Committee is to provide resources, educate, and celebrate the greatness of a diverse church.  We must celebrate and thank God for the gifts given to each of us and it is the committee’s duties to look for ways the church can be more inclusive, to be sure the church maintains a multicultural outlook and outreach, to set and show examples of diversity at work in congregations, and to do all things as Christ intended us through the Gospel. We must learn about our differences, but celebrate together in the name of Jesus Christ!

Our Logo

Butterflies come in many colors just as people come from many ethnicities. There is no dominant color but blended together the colors give the butterfly its beauty and also serve as protecting camouflage. So it is with the church, no one color or ethnic group is predominant but we work together to create beauty and harmony. The Multicultural Concerns Committee has selected the butterfly as a logo because it represent people of all cultures and ethnicities working and living together in a new life in Christ.

Financial Assistance
