| Sumario: | As faith communities in the United States growing increasingly diverse, many churches are turning to the shared parish, a single church facility shared by distinct cultural groups that retain their own worship and ministries. This book explores the shared parish through an ethnographic study of a Roman Catholic parish in a small Midwestern city demographically transformed by Mexican immigration in recent decades. The author argues that the search for identity and adequate intercultural proactice in such parishes might call for new approaches to cultural diversity that go beyond simply assimilation or multiculturalism.--From publisher description. |
