This course provides an investigation into the ways in which Catholicism is inherently ecclesial and social. The course’s framework will be taken from the analysis of society into three spheres of action (culture, politics, and economics) in relation to how the Church understands “integral human development,” and its contrary of human sin, injustice, suffering, etc. We will examine the relationship between the Anglo and Latino influences in the US Church providing experiences and examples of how the cultural, political and economic spheres of society interact. We will visit a couple of the Latino churches in the Twin Cities engaging the changing face of the Church in Minnesota. We will engage issues such as the growing Latino Church, evangelization and enculturation, historical origins, immigration, especially the undocumented and the problem of poverty and economic development. Depending on Covid restrictions we hope to have several site visits to various places in the local and regional area.
