Jesus' prayer for unity:

John 17:20-23
" So my prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those
who will believe in me through their message.21 that all of them
may be one Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they
also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent
me.22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may
be one as we are one: 23 I in them and you in me that they may be
brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me
and have loved them even as you have loved me."

We
strive to become closer to and more like Yeshua. We seek to honor
Him through our indigenous culture
and the traditions of our people.
While seeking His qualities we also believe that God
created diversity, UNITY through cultural DIVERSITY is a
part of who The Creator is. We
can see Him in the faces of ALL people of ALL nations and tribes
since he created all men in his image. After all, He didn't make
all the birds the same color and singing the same song right?
Revelations
6:9-10 "After this, I looked and there before me was a great
multitude that no one could count, from every nation, every tribe,
people, and language, standing before the throne and in front of
the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm
branches in their hands. 10And they cried out in a loud
voice "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb."
