WHY REACH OUT TO ASIAN AMERICANS?
- "...Christ CAME to seek and save the lost..."
(Luke 19:10).
- The Asian population in North America is growing
at an unprecedented rate. Demographics estimates
indicate that 40-50 million people of Asian background
will live in North America by the year 2050. -
Kiplinger's Journal states that for every one Asian
American that dies, more than 20 people of Asian
background will take his/her place in the United
States by way of birth or immigration.
-
Some sources say that 97% of Asian Americans are
unchurched.

growing Asian American communities with the Good News
