What is Pastoral Juvenil?
Pastoral Juvenil is defined as the pastoral action taking place at the parish level that seeks to evangelize Hispanic/Latino teens. Pastoral Juvenil encompasses teens from 12 to 17 years of age with the goal of leading all to an encounter with the Living God. We aim to do by taking into account the language and cultural aspects present in the families we serve.
The Pastoral Juvenil Specialist works in the Office of Youth and Campus Ministry of the Archdiocese of Denver. The goal of this position is to provide support to the Pastor and the leaders of Pastoral Juvenil, both on staff and in volunteer positions, at the parish, in their ministry with teens.
