In this Queer & Latinx Faith Conversation, sponsored by The CLGS Latinx Roundtable | Fe, Familia, Igualdad, The Rev. Juan M. C. Oliver PhD, invites us to consider the ways in which Latinx cultures and Christian liturgy create modes of worship that encourage the development of liturgical rituals that are authentic, deeply prayerful, and richly human.  View this workshop in which Dr. Oliver explores some of the many ways in which Latinx Christians worship Latinamente!
