Our vision
To cultivate a unified spiritual community where language diversity is embraced as a gift from God, allowing all people to experience and express their faith in meaningful ways. We envision a church where cultural and linguistic differences strengthen our collective witness, reflecting the Kingdom of God—a place where every nation, tribe, and tongue will worship together.
How we serve
- We help to network immigrant communities across the North American Division.
- We collaborate with unions and their conferences in ministries to these emerging communities.
- We monitor and oversee the language groups through advisories of differing language groups.
- We provide appropriations to financially support these emerging communities, including scholarships for students.
- We provide seminars and conferences on cultural intelligence.
- We provide multilingual resources connecting emerging communities with needed materials.
- We support camp meetings between unions when emerging people groups gather.
- We fund efforts that serve refugee and immigrant evangelism programs.
