Toward culturally informed ministry: a foundation for excellence in ministry in Mexican American and other multicultural faith communities

Abstrato

The author's thesis: (a) Thomas Groome's model of practical theology leads to excellence in pastoral ministry; (b) Conversion is the overarching goal of pastoral ministry; (b) Being knowledgeable about each culture in the community is necessary for culturally informed ministry. Being bilingual is not sufficient. Thus a method for culturally informed ministry is presented: (1) Awareness of the fundamental importance of culture for pastoral ministry; (2) Knowledge of one's own culture and the other culture(s); (3) Cross cultural ministerial skills. Groome's model was applied to ministry in Mexican American faith communities. Recommendations for renewed ministry to those communities resulted.
