Based on themes from Orlando Crespo’s book, “Being Latino in
Christ: Finding Wholeness in Your Ethnic Identity,” this seminar will
be explore the intersection between God, faith and culture and
how embracing of our ethnic identity can empower us for God’s
work in our families, communities and campuses. Orlando will share
from his 20 years of college ministry experience to Latino youth and
personally from his own Latino ethnic journey and the ways God
used it to fuel his own passion for others.
Language, bi-culturalism, race and generational differences are
just a few of the challenges Latino youth face in living productive
and Godly lives in a hostile America. This seminar will define what
it means to be “Latino Enough” in the United States so that young
Latinos can live out God’s purposes in their lives without anxiety,
fear or shame.
