Black culture, and I think this is true of other cultures, is notoriously unwelcoming of outsiders. I've had the displeasure of being excluded and mocked for being white even though I'm technically half-black.
I'm not surprised you got this response at a black church nor am I surprised that the church in the original post is black - apparently in America white people have to make way for the minorities, not the other way round.
