Teología and Pastoral de y en Conjunto
The theme of teología and pastoral de y en conjunto explores the idea of God talk and theology as a group.

In other words, we as a community must work together and be the servant leaders to our fellow neighbors. In a sense, this project itself is a conjunto. As a group, the four of us met together to think about our themes and topics related to Zero Tolerance, as well as the lives that are affected by this policy. We chose this topic to focus on due to the perceived injustice that asylum seekers face, and we want to spread awareness on this issue. Video by Elizabeth Craft.
