Re: Is your church multi-racial/multi-cultural?

I am currently seeing a black man. Not dating per say, but occasional, every 3 or 4 months, "dinner dates".
My mom has told me that I can't bring him to our family home, he would not be welcomed.
Since I have never been one to conform to "racial" lines and even as a child did not see the difference in color, this has upset me very much. And my dad is a former Minister. He did not feel this way. But my mom sets the tone of the home and he defers to her now.

My church is a Multi-race/Multi-cultural church. I would say 1/3 white, 1/3 black, 1/3 hispanic. We have couples that are Black/White, Hispanic/White, Asian/White, Asian/Black.

It makes me sad to see churches or hear of churches that do not know how to blend the congregation. I would not be able to go to a church that did not teach unity and peace and non-segregation.
