Abstract

One of the most visible changes of the parishes of recent ministry is the growing presence of multi-cultures. Different cultures constantly experience cross-cultural dynamics which challenge ministry to be sensitive to and reflective of the needs and concerns of cross-cultural society. Therefore, the role of ministry in rapidly changing pastoral contexts should be reexamined continuously to be effective cross-culturally. This project emerges out of a cross-cultural pastoral experience which provides tools and opportunities to discern critical issues in the ministry and to articulate a methodology for the ministry. The project envisions and suggests how ministry can be cross-culturally whole. Such wholeness includes the authenticity of being unique within a cultural tradition, and interdependence through cross-cultural respect and the learning process.
