Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Church is called to be the house of the Father, with doors always wide open." - Pope Francis, The Joy of the Gospel In this groundbreaking nationwide study of Hispanic ministries in U.S. parishes, Dr. Hosffman Ospino describes not only the reality of the Church in the United States today, but the Church it is becoming. With 40 percent of the Catholic population in the United States claiming Hispanic roots, and the possibility that this population could triple in the next 35 years, Ospino makes clear that the vitality of our Church in the 21st century depends in large part on our embrace of this growing Hispanic presence. He documents the obstacles that threaten this vitality, and describes the opportunities that await us if we open our doors wide to the richly diverse communities that comprise Hispanic Catholicism. "Dr. Ospino's study is a must-read for every diocesan office and every parish in this country. The challenge of this transformation he describes is to be welcomed, not feared, for it will ultimately enrich all of us as Catholics and be a blessing for our entire nation." -- Greg Erlandson, President and Publisher, Our Sunday Visitor

Download or read book Bridging Boundaries written by Kenneth G. Davis and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Book Examines the theological implications of the Hispanic sensus fidelium as expressed in religion popular, seeing it as a consensus that needs to be fully accepted for itself by the official church. It plays a double role as both a vehicle for the Christian faith in Hispanic communities and as praxis that helps Hispanics hold on to one of the key elements of their identity, namely the Christian Religion. It also examines the implications of diversity among Hispanics in the United States. There are two reasons why this immigration is different from those of the past: it brings a constantly renewing flow of immigrants from Latin America and the Caribbean and it is richly diverse with its differences and likenesses. Only when the religious traditions of these immigrants and their diversity are truly embraced by the church, will it truly become a key element in American Hispanic culture. So one of the key objects of this thorough pastoral study of American Hispanics, is to try to build better bridges of communication over the boundaries that separate culture, generation, ethnicity, language, acculturation, gender, race and religion.
