New immigrants_those arriving since the Immigration Reform Act of
1965_have forever altered American culture and have been profoundly
altered in turn. Although the religious congregations they form are
often a nexus of their negotiation between the old and new, they
have received little scholarly attention. Religion and the New
Immigrants fills this gap. Growing out of the carefully designed
Religion, Ethnicity and the New Immigration Research project,
Religion and the New Immigrants combines in-depth studies of
thirteen congregations in the Houston area with seven thematic
essays looking across their diversity. The congregations range from
Vietnamese Buddhist to Greek Orthodox, a Zoroastrian center to a
multi-ethnic Assembly of God, presenting an astonishing array of
ethnicity and religious practice. Common research questions and the
common location of the congregations give the volume a unique
comparative focus. Religion and the New Immigrants is an essential
reference for scholars of immigration, ethnicity, and American
religion.
