163. Living Word Bible Fellowship Church Of Dallas Dallas, Texas (nondenominational). An asianamerican church. Beliefs, service times, information on studies and small groups, members' resources, location, pastor's biography, and contact details. http://www.lwbf.org

Asian Americans have a difficult time finding a church that fits. The churches many of our parents attended have their place, but sometimes language and cultural differences got in the way of worship and service. Large numbers of us turned away in frustration. Or we remained in the background, feeling like second-class passengers. Either way, the longing inside of us to know God and worship Him was not satisfied. From this need the vision for Living Word Bible Fellowship was born. We are a young church made up primarily of Asian American professionals in their 20's and 30's. And we want to be a voice of hope and encouragement to the Asian community and beyond. The Asian population in Dallas has exploded in the past ten years. According to one recent article in the Dallas Morning News, the growth rate is 72%...almost three times the national average! The 2000 census is likely to show up to 300,000 Asians in the greater Dallas area. Yet there are precious few churches reaching out to meet the spiritual needs of English-speaking Asians. Our dream is to be part of the answer to that need. We believe the young generation of Asian Americans don't need a superficial stained-glass religion. They need to find something real and powerful and life-changing. Something that will give them a new hope, a new purpose, and a new joy in life.

164. Pontiac Celebrates Asian American History Month Much like Black history and Women’s history celebrations, APA Heritage Month originated in a congressional bill put forward by legislators. http://www.pontiac.mi.us/apahistorymonth.html

May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month HISTORY: In June 1977, Representatives Frank Horton of New York and Norman Y. Mineta of California introduced a House resolution requesting the president to proclaim the first ten days of May as Asian/Pacific Heritage Week. Senators Daniel Inouye and Spark Matsunaga introduced a similar bill in the Senate the following month. Both were passed. (www.factmonster.com) On October 5, 1978, President Jimmy Carter signed a Joint Resolution designating the annual celebration. (www.factmonster.com) In May 1990, President George H. W. Bush designated May to be Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. May was chosen to commemorate the immigration of the first Japanese immigrants to the United States in 1843. (www.factmonster.com) There are approximately 11.9 million Asians reported on the Census 2000, which is 4.2% of the total population. There are about 7.2 million U.S. residents in 2000 who were born in Asia, which is 26% of the total Asian population. The Golden State has the highest numbers of Asians residing there. (www.census.gov)

last updated: 05/10/04 mc Spring Quarter 1998 History 346 Professor J. Wu This course introduces the field of Asian American history, which examines the experiences of people of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, South Asian, Pilipino, and Southeast Asian ancestry in the United States. Lectures, readings, films, and discussions will examine the continuities as well as changes in Asian American experience through three chronological periods: the first wave of immigration (mid-19th to 1934), the years of exclusion and international conflict (the middle decades of the 20th century), and the second wave of immigration (post-1965). The course will explore two overarching themes: 1) how the experiences of Asian Americans complicate the existing understanding of American race, class, gender, and international relations; and 2) the similarities as well as differences between various Asian American groups, i.e. the historical validity of a pan-Asian American identity.
