Book Hispanic Ministry in Catholic Parishes

Download or read book Hispanic Ministry in Catholic Parishes written by Hosffman Ospino, PhD and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 199 pages. 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

Book Hispanic Christian Thought at the Dawn of the 21st Century

Download or read book Hispanic Christian Thought at the Dawn of the 21st Century written by Justo L. González and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Alvin Padilla, Roberto Goizueta, and Eldin Villafa e bring together an impressive array of Hispanic scholars from across the theological disciplines to articulate just such a comprehensive construction of Hispanic theology. Their purpose is to delineate the common elements in Hispanic biblical studies, theology, and ethics and to draw these together into a statement of what Hispanic theology has to say to the larger theological community, and to the church. To do so they organize their presentation around four theological streams that run through Hispanic theology: * Reading Scripture from the Margins: The contributors will present a reading of the biblical text that incorporates into its interpretative methodology the experience of alienation and marginalization, the central feature of Hispanic sociohistorical reality. * Subversive and Liberating Memories: The contributors discover the subversive and liberating stories and voices within the Christian tradition and demonstrate how the memory of these "liberate" Hispanics and others from contemporary oppression. * Liberating Truth: The authors offer fresh perspective on theological truth, incorporating the distinctive Hispanic sources, locus, and expressions. * Liberating Praxis: Drawing on current Hispanic religious experience (for example, spirituality, church life, and ministry), the authors reflect on the way Hispanic religious experience is changing and how it will change the landscape of Western Christianity in the 21st century.

Book Catholic Parishes of the 21st Century

Download or read book Catholic Parishes of the 21st Century written by Charles E. Zech and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-02 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A seminal moment in the study of U.S. Catholic parish life came in the 1980s with the publication of a series of reports from the ground-breaking Notre Dame Study of Catholic Parish Life. These reports are now badly outdated, as Catholic dioceses grapple with new challenges that didn't exist in the 80s. Topics that were not considered then, like greater Catholic mobility, increased cultural diversity, and structural re-organization as well as the rise of lay leadership, have attained new significance. This timely book, based on more than a decade of research, provides an in-depth portrait and analysis of the current state of parish life and leadership. Unique in the scope of the research and the timeliness of its findings, the book critically examines the current state of parish life. The authors draw on data from national polls of Catholics, national surveys of parishes, and thousands of in-pew surveys which explore parishioners' needs, experiences, and satisfaction with parish life in the twenty-first century. The book provides a unique 360-degree view of parish life from the perspective of pastors, parish staff, parishioners, as well as the larger Catholic population.
