These resources have been prepared by the Committee of Cross Cultural Ministry drawing upon their collective wisdom and experience in this area. This is not meant to be a prescriptive list of dos and don’ts. Rather, it is as an invitation for you to look at your context, to ask yourself how you can serve your members in more culturally appropriate ways, and how you can bring the gospel to people from the rich variety of cultural backgrounds in our wider community.
