Joining us this week is acclaimed Catholic speaker, author and academic Dr. Hosffman Ospino, Associate Professor of Hispanic Ministry and Religious Education, as well as chair of the Department of Religious Education and Pastoral Ministry at Boston College. Dr. Ospino’s research explores the dialogue between faith and culture and the impact of this interchange upon Catholic theological education, catechesis, and ministry. He has served as the principal investigator for several nationally recognized studies on how the Hispanic Catholic presence is transforming parishes, schools and organizations.

Dr. Ospino was also a keynote speaker at the Diocese of Camden’s Convocation of Catholic Leaders in 2018, which is why we asked that event’s executive director, Donna Ottaviano-Britt, on to the show to talk about some of the ways the Convocation has led to the percolating of new ideas in our parishes. The duo give our hosts, Marianela Nunez and Mike Walsh, and our listeners a lot of great information that should provide a roadmap into the future for our parishes.
