I'll be honest here, I'm NOT color blind. I used to love living in a melting pot, but now I'd opt for the salad bowl.

Since the 20's when most of the whites left the PAW and formed other groups the intergration has been very slow. I do NOT believe a 'white' & 'black' church is the will of God.

Your statement could be taken many different ways, care to clarify?
A multi-cultural church requires Godly wisdom and leadership, but it is a glorious sight to behold.

I remember as a 15 yr old young man, inviting my older friend and neighbor to church. She said "...when I go to church, I go to a black church."

I don't agree, but I understand why someone of 'color' wouldn't trust my white preacher and his church full of....









mexicans.

People naturally tend to go to church where they feel comfortable. Whether we like it or not, race is factor in that comfort level.
