Multiethnic Church Conducts First Preview Service

CHICAGO, IL (November 7, 2001) - About 150 people attended Sunday's initial preview worship service for New Community Covenant Church, a multiethnic church plant started by Peter Hong. The service was held at City North 14 General Cinema Theater in Chicago.

New Community Covenant Church is attempting to integrate Asians, African-Americans, Hispanics and Caucasians into a cohesive congregation. Hong has assembled a leadership group representing the four groups. The church hosted 85 people at a core group worship celebration September 27.

The second preview service at New Community Covenant Church is scheduled for December 9. The church plans to kick off its regular weekly services in January 2002.
