WHAT IS LAY MINISTRY? All lay men and women are called to participate in the mission of the church, to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ by their actions and words, and to work toward the transformation of the world. Most

respond to this call in secular arenas - in family life, in their workplace, and in the civic community.

Some also work within the church, to build up the Christian community through various forms of min-istry. Some do this on a limited, voluntary, or temporary basis - as catechists, liturgical ministers, parish

council members, visitors to the sick, youth workers, advocates for the poor, and so on. Some serve on a more stable basis and may even be employed in the church. Lay ministry is a broad term that encom-

passes all these forms of service within or on behalf of the church community.

WHAT IS LAY ECCLESIAL MINISTRY? Within the broader group of lay ministers is a smaller group of men and women whose service is charac-terized by:

authorization of the hierarchy to serve publicly in the local church leadership in a particular area of ministry

close mutual collaboration with the pastoral ministry of bishops, priests, and deacons preparation and formation appropriate to the level of responsibilities assigned to them

The US Bishops have referred to these women and men as lay ecclesial ministers. The term is generic. It

includes people serving in a variety of roles. In a parish, for example, it might include the pastoral asso-ciate, director of religious education, youth minister, pastoral musician, or school principal. Lay eccle-

sial ministry also encompasses service beyond the parish, including the ministry of health care chap-lains, campus ministers, and diocesan leaders.

Hispanic Ministry Following the Pastoral Plan of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe, the Office of Hispanic Ministry, serves the Hispanic/Latino Catholic community, as well as the priests and parishes who serve these communities.

We seek to fulfill the common mission of evangelization by offer-ing Hispanics/Latinos opportunities for Faith formation in Spanish and by promoting full participation in the life of the Church. At the same time, a welcoming attitude that recognizes the gifts and rich contributions of all cultures among the People of God is constantly promoted, inviting all to become one Body in Christ.

Some concrete ways in which we accomplish this mission are:

Welcoming Attitude / National V Encuentro Following Pope Francis Exhor-tation, Evangelii Gaudium, the Office of Hispanic Ministry pro-motes a culture of Encuentro, a welcoming attitude among all parish communities towards Hispanics/Latinos, particularly those whose primary/preferred language is Spanish as well as newly-arrived immigrants.

In keeping with the goals of the

V Encuentro, we strive to pro-

mote active participation in par-ish life and ministries among

Hispanics/Latinos, encourag-ing them to become an integral

part of the community at large and to share their rich faith and

gifts with others, for the mutual enrichment of the life of the

Church.

Leadership Development Offers a one-year formation program in Spanish: Formación para el Liderazgo Pastoral Hispano for active lay parish ministers who seek training in basic lead-ership skills for the pastoral life of the Church.

Spanish TV Mass Ministry In collaboration with other of-fices, offers the weekly televised

Sunday Spanish Language Mass, as a viable ministry to

the homebound, incarcerated and other shut-in populations.

Liaison for Spanish Parish Ministries Acts as liaison between the Ar-

chdiocese/Archbishop and Spa-nish Speaking Parish Minis-tries /individuals such as: Movi-

miento Familiar Cristiano, Grupos de Oración, Enriquecimiento Ma-trimonial, Hombres de la Cruz,

ACTS in Spanish and others.

Marriage Prep and Help Program in Spanish In collaboration with the Office of Family Life, the Office of Hispanic Ministry offers Nos Vamos a Casar, a weekend re-treat for couples preparing for their sacramental marriage, as well as Retrouvaille (French for Rediscover), in Spanish, a pro-gram for hurting couples and couples that are on the verge of divorce.

Adult Faith Formation Offers a two-year Adult Faith Formation program in Spanish: Discípulos Misioneros for Catho-lics who wish to know more about their faith and become more effective participants in the ministerial efforts of the Church.

Mi Casa es su Casa Publishes the monthly Spanish

language newsletter Mi Casa es

su Casa, reaching more than

3,000 Catholic households. This publication invites partici-pation in the many events and

opportunities for faith enrich-ment offered throughout the

Archdiocese of Santa Fe, partic-ularly those of interest to the

Hispanic/Latino community.

Advocacy on behalf of Immigrants Works closely with other faith communities, government and community organizations, in favor of the Immigrant commu-nity, particularly in areas of Catholic Social Teaching.

About Us Our understanding of the

pueblos is unique as we have personally experienced the two paths in which the native people walk.
