Ethnic Local Church Concerns

Ministries of Faith in Action

We are one church, yet we recognize the individuality and diversity of each one of our members. It is our mission to ensure that the voices of diversity are heard within not only our community, but throughout the world as well. This ministry serves the purpose of strengthening ethnic local churches through various programs, leadership courses, grants and more – all to encourage a message of grace, equality, and hope within our communities.
