Hispanics in the Church: Inclusion in Mainline Denominations

This research project examines the outputs/outcomes of three Hispanic Ministry programs within three historic mainline Protestant denominations in order to gain insight into whether inclusion of Hispanics has increased. Given the new cultural context of openness to plurality in post-modernity and the increased presence of Hispanics in the United States evidence of increased Hispanic inclusion in Christian churches was expected. The research found that the level of Hispanic inclusion in the three mainline Protestant denominations was low and flat but that other Christian denominations were experiencing moderate to high levels of Hispanic inclusion.
