Excerpt from the article:
"When it comes to racial and ethnic diversity in the Christian Reformed Church, these are the best of times—and the worst of times. Churches either succeed at becoming multiethnic or they fail miserably. Granted, it’s not an easy task, but in many senses, it’s not an option. As urban missiologist Ray Bakke says, “The world has come to our doorstep”—it’s up to us to welcome it or to turn it away.
Although we can learn from churches who fail in their efforts to become multiethnic, I’d like to highlight three congregations who are succeeding in this endeavor: Cornerstone CRC of Ann Arbor, Mich.; The River in Raleigh/Durham, N.C.; and Oasis Community CRC in Orlando, Fla."
