Strengthen the community through intercultural dialogue and activities that support the concept of “unity in diversity.” 7. Give the Church in NE Kansas a voice in Spanish by supporting and encouraging the Hispanic community to be active participants in the social mission of the Church. 8. Actively seek ways to affirm, promote, strengthen marriages and support the strong family values of Hispanics. 9.

Respond to the immigrant, Hispanic population’s need for full participation in our communities and economy by supporting amnesty and other initiatives that address this growing gap.
El Ministerio Hispano es la respuesta de la Arquidiócesis a la presencia Hispana. Su principal objetivo es llevar a todos los Hispanos Católicos a una participación entusiasta en la vida y misión de la Iglesia, mientras se refuerza la unión del cuerpo único de Cristo. La oficina del Ministerio Hispano colaborará con otras oficinas de la Arquidiócesis y parroquias locales para: 1) asegurar ministerios plurales y servicios efectivos que desarrollen oportunidades de liderazgo para los Hispanos. 2) expandir la capacidad ministerial de las parroquias para responder a la creciente presencia de los Hispanos en la Arquidiócesis. Esta misión se llevará a cabo implementando el plan Pastoral de la Arquidiócesis para el Ministerio Hispano.
PRESENCIA HISPANA EN EL NORDESTE DE KANSAS
Estadísticas del Estado de Kansas
El censo 2000 del Estado de Kansas dice que hay 182,252 Hispanos, equivalentes a 141,189 Católicos (basado en el promedio nacional que revela que aproximadamente 75% son Católicos.) Estadísticas de la Arquidiócesis • El censo 2000 muestra a 70,905 Hispanos viviendo en la Arquidiócesis. Esto equivale a cuando menos 53,180 Católicos (de acuerdo con el promedio nacional antes mencionado.) • Los datos del censo 2000 señalan que con aproximadamente 210,000 católicos en la Arquidiócesis, más del 25% son Hispanos. • Sin embargo, los Hispanos tienen en la región el crecimiento poblacional más grande, lo que indicaría que podrían representar el 30% o más de nuestra población Católica.
