Related Titles Sharing Faith Across the Hemisphere Through the Synod of Bishops for America, Pope John Paul II called all people to a new level of awareness and unity. This book presents a story of hope, of mission, of evangelization-the history of the Church in the Western Hemisphere since the fifteenth century. The Church in Latin America developed very differently from the Church in the United States, yet the meeting of the two worlds in the twentieth century brought mutual sharing of a dynamic faith. Prepared in anticipation of the Synod and written in a popular, engaging style, Sharing Faith Across the Hemisphere quickly immerses the reader as it relates the historical context and describes the mutual sharing that has taken place. The history is complemented by extensive endnotes, discussion questions, and an appendix summarizing a survey of dioceses, parishes, and religious orders about their involvement in Latin America. Edited by Mary McGlone, CSJ, for the U.S. bishops' Committee on the Church in Latin America.
