Importance of intentional strategies at various stages:
--Discernment Stage (family,parish, school, diocese,
national level)--Application Stage--Formation Stage--Ongoing Formation Stage
Strategy for both:--Immigrant population--Non-immigrant
population
“Toolbox” for:--Bishops--Vocation Directors
VOCATIONS & YOUTH MINISTRY
Concern: we are losing Hispanic youth and young adults especially in the second and third generations
Opportunity: helping leaders in youth, campus, and young adult ministry be more intentional in creating a culture of vocations in their ministries
A couple keys:--World Youth Day--Better coordination with La Red (organization committed to the evangelization and formation of Hispanic youth and young adults)
ASOSIACION DE RELIGIOSAS
HISPANAS EN LOS ESTADOS UNIDOS
(ARHEU)
--Not meant to be a conference like LCWR or CMSWR--A voluntary group of sisters from different congregations concerned with the formation and integration of women religious from Latin American countries who serve immigrant populations
Key: each diocese has policies regarding just compensation for religious
CCLV has a concern that these are being followed
