Catechesis and Latino Culture

200280735-001My friend and colleague, Santiago Cortés-Sjöberg, is doing a presentation at NCCL in April titled Latino Culture and Catechesis 101 and he is interested in hearing from catechists and catechetical leaders who have experience ministering to and catechizing Latinos to talk about the unique challenges and opportunities involved.

If you have such experience, would you be willing to take a few moments to compose an email to send to Santiago to share some thoughts about your experiences in catechizing in Latino culture?

You can send your email directly to Santiago at cortes-sjoberg@loyolapress.com.

Thanks!
