Music:

• Make sure that your music team is diverse and that majority-culture people don’t always have the lead
• Co-lead the worship together with someone from another culture
• Use foreign instruments
• Use music tracks from varying musical styles
• Invite a guest musician from another culture
• Sing a well-known song with new instruments
• Sing a song in different languages
• Make sure that the background music is intercultural too

Relax:

• To help people in an intercultural church feel more comfortable, give people time to greet each other at the start of the meeting
• Have meals together, perhaps a bring-and-share
• Be creative in stimulating relationships
• Involve the people of the church during the meeting

Prayer:

• Pray for the countries your people come from
• Have someone pray in their own language or let your own prayer be translated
• Use different ways of prayer like: praying loudly all together- silent prayer- background music during prayer, etc.

Language:

• During Scripture reading, have it read out in another language
• Take care of good spelling when using another language
• Read the Bible antiphonally
• Practice pronunciation of a foreign language

Image:

• Develop videos from your own church
• Make use of visual materials that depict other cultures: pictures of the people, written language, quotes from heroes, and banners. (For example: Pictures of palms can help people from tropical climates feel at home.)

Offering:

• Different cultures have unique ways of collecting money – ask your congregation for their ideas
