Sumario:Formation for ordained ministry needs to take U.S. Hispanic culture with utmost seriousness. This means recognizing, on the one hand, the plurality of Latino cultures within the United States, and on the other, the various levels of acculturation to and integration with the dominant Anglo culture.

The year 1992 offers an opportunity for a genuine encounter between the North Atlantic church and the Latino cultural worlds.
