<note>&#34;The United States is often called a melting pot. This concept seeks to submerge new Americans and minority ethnic groups into the American way of life, resulting in their losing their unique self-identities and heritages.&#34;

&#34;The land that receives the world's tired, poor, huddled masses that yearn to breathe free has become the 'American Mosaic,' reflecting diversities of cultural and linguistic values.&#34;

-from Chapter 1

Like tiny bits of colored glass, the kaleidoscopic patterns of America's ethnic groups present a new challenge to the church Starting churches among ethnic groups in the United States is a

missions task unlike any other. Oscar Romo is uniquely qualified to write this book.

A Mexican-American native of Texas, he has been a pastor of Hispanic churches, missionary to American ethnics, and since 1970 has headed language missions work for the Southern Baptist Home Mission Board. He has earned degrees from Howard Payne University, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Austin (Tex.) Presbyterian Seminary,

Romo provides more than nuts-and-bolts information about ethnic church planting. Like a master craftsman, he weaves his material into a bright tapestry of missions opportunity that is American Mosaic.</note>
