Description
This course is designed for students with some college level Spanish language ability who want to gain theological and ministerial competency in this language while discussing and learning in Spanish about ministry with Latinos/as/xs in the USA. A combination of readings, conversational practice, practical theological assignments, interaction with Latino congregations, and cultural and musical activities will give students a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities of ministry with Latinos/as/xs and help them discern how they could themselves pursue and/or support this kind of ministry.
Note: After enrolling, students will need to demonstrate a mid-range intermediate college level ability in Spanish (online, via Augsburg College, no cost to student). Tutorial sessions may be offered during the first weeks of the course.
