Are you a leader, clergy or lay, in a Catholic parish wrestling with how to bridge the multiple ethnic, linguistic, and racial communities that increasingly comprise your parish? With these cultural backgrounds frequently come diverse perspectives on everything from how to communicate with each other to how to understand God. In addition, such cultural divisions all too often manifest differences in the access these communities have to parish decision-making structures. In Building Bridges, Not Walls - Construyamos puentes, no muros, John Francis Burke highlights the dramatic impact the growing Latino presence is having in parishes across the country, considers the theology of inculturation and intercultural ministry, and provides practical pastoral ministry suggestions on doing intercultural ministry. Includes full text in both English and Spanish.

En Construyamos puentes, no muros - Building Bridges, Not Walls, John Francis Burke muestra el impacto tan grande que los latinos est n teniendo en las parroquias del pa s; explica la teolog a de la inculturaci n y del ministerio intercultural; y ofrece sugerencias pr cticas para quienes trabajan en este ltimo.
