Date: Thursday, August 27th, 2015
Time: Morning Presentation: 10AM-12PM OR Evening Presentation: 7PM-9PM
Theme: Cultural Awareness, Community & Evangelization
Where: The Chancery at the Diocese of San Jose
We have an array of cultures, ethnicities and communities in our diocese and we felt strongly that our first youth and young adult ministers gathering should focus on this theme. It's our hope that this gathering can equip ministers about the depth and breadth of culture and how it plays a pivotal role in ministry. Our keynote speaker is Fr. Bong Rojas from the Diocese of Sacramento.
Fr. Rojas is currently the pastor of St. Anthony Church in Sacramento as well as a professor of philosophy and theology at St. Patrick's Seminary and University in Menlo Park, CA. He finished his Licentiate in Philosophy at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila, Masters in Theology from St. Patrick's in Menlo Park, and Licentiate in Dogmatic Theology at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome.
