Nowadays, South Korea is a multicultural society. While transition to multicultural society has taken place in Korea, immigrant family have gone through difficulties due to the lack of effort to understand and prejudice upon another cultures. That is because Korean society has identified itself one people with one culture holding stereotype of other nation and people. There is no difference on the perception of multicultural family between Church and Korean society. Such a stereotype of immigrant family makes an impact on the adjustment of the immigrant family in Church. The immigrant family encounter similar circumstance such as stereotype, language barrier, and cultural differences in Korean Church. Simultaneously, they are expected not only to assimilate themselves to the culture of Korean Church, but also to abandon their own language, lifestyle, custom, and values. In this sense, it is indispensible to concern about and study the issue of multicultural family and their children as the one that need a pastoral care by local church pastors. This study has a good reason to discuss a pastoral care in terms of communication on the presupposition that the method of the pastoral ministry for multicultural family and their children, needs to be improved. Therefore, main purpose of this study is to seek a proper direction of multicultural pastoral ministry acknowledging the issues of the multicultural ministry and accommodating the demands of the change. For this purpose, this study will investigate not only the reality and issues of multicultural family from the sociocultural perspective but also the reality and its alternate solution in the context of local church. The second will explore the biblical communication that God initiated and wanted and the communication for multicultural family in the context of church. Finally, this paper will suggest a way of communication and its pastoral strategy for multicultural immigrant family. This study will play an important role in seeking the proper way of pastoral care for multicultural family and their children.
