PAACT stands for Partnership of Asian American Churches in Texas. We exist as a fellowship of evangelical churches whose mission is to assist the local church in advancing ministries among English-speaking Asians.
PAACT Conversations are conversations that normally occur between PAACT pastors and ministers when we meet and fellowship together. By recording our conversations and sharing them online, we hope to edify our congregations and display our camaraderie. We hope you’ll be blessed and challenged by what you hear.
