Every Culture, Every Language

We provide multilingual resources, support immigrant congregations, foster cultural understanding, and equip leaders to meet the unique spiritual and social needs of diverse language communities—so that all believers can be fully integrated into the body of Christ and grow as disciples.  See below for a full list of the many resources we provide for language groups across the Division. These include fellowship gatherings, magazines, bible study materials, scholarships, and other resources.

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.
