This course enables participants to develop or strengthen language skills needed for pastoral care liturgy, preaching, organizing and other facets of pastoral ministry in bilingual situations and the exploration of the culture, history and religious expressions of the diverse Latino population.
The course implements not only daily common vocabulary used in day to day situations, but emphasizes on vocabulary and themes based on the Sacred Scripture and the Liturgy in any church community.
