Enhancing cross cultural marriages and workplaces

Imagine creating a family when your spouse's cultural values are not aligned with your own cultural values. Cross-cultural marriages are an increasing norm in our country. Or imagine working with people from other cultures whose work ethic is different than your own. Consider that Massachusetts has the second largest Brazilian population in the country! Living among different cultures is challenging in marriages and in the workplace.

Visit ConnectingPoint Church on Sunday July 31 at 10AM as Pastor Paul Lantz explains the challenges and opportunities of living in a cross cultural world.

Paul, an American that grew up in Detroit, was the first American to graduate from a Lutheran Seminary in Brazil. (Seminario Concordia, Sao Leopoldo, Rio Grande do Sul). His wife, Rosangela, was born in Brazil and they have three children. Pastor Paul and Rosangela will share some tools and approaches to enhance cross cultural relationships.  ConnectingPoint Church meets at Marlborough Middle School (25 Union Street, Marlborough, MA).
