Season 3 (Ep. 3) — Opening the Doors of Catholic Schools to Hispanic Catholics

Religious Freedom Matters

Hispanic Catholics are a large part of the Church in America. Why are they such a small part of Catholic schools? “The future of the Catholic Church has a Hispanic face.” Lucia Luzondo, expert in Hispanic ministry, points to the disconnect between the growing presence of Hispanic Catholics in the United States and the low enrollment of Hispanic children in Catholic schools. With hosts Andrea Picciotti-Bayer and Joan Desmond, Lucia explores some of the reasons for this and suggests steps to improve outreach to Hispanic families. Now is the time to bridge the divide so more Hispanic families can choose Catholic schools for their children.
