Pastor Michael Stevens created the challenge to bridge racial gaps among churches by encouraging members to try attending other churches for three weeks.

But he said now that it's over, he's a little disappointed.

"Unsuccessful in the terms of seeing the actual numbers, but highly successful in dialogue," Stevens said.

"Would I have loved to see all the seven or eight African American churches sprinkled with black and white? I would have loved to have seen that. Didn't see that," Stevens said.

Although the challenge fell a little short for Stevens, some church members said they're happy after three weeks.

"I was excited to see that we actually had persons that were willing to participate and I'm hoping it will catch on within the city of Charlotte," Nikki Harper, a member of the University City Church, said.

John Redmond, another church member, said he thought Church Swap was very effective.

"We did have some visitors here of other races," Redmond said. "I could see the excitement and exuberance of the ones that visited the church."

Although Pastor Stevens considers Church Swap unsuccessful on some levels, he said he's not ready to give up.

"I think we'll take another stab at it," he said. "We'll keep educating, keep empowering and keep celebrating our cultural differences as we bridge the cultural gap."
