The immigrant Hispanics are no longer a slam dunk. While the majority are still Catholic many of them are not actively practicing. It's more of a cultural Catholicism. Second, there is a growing segment of the Hispanic population which is being wooed away by evangelicals, Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons.

What we are gaining in Protestant converts we are losing in cradle Catholics. Catholics should be concerned.

The problem with ministering to Hispanics in the uS as far as the church is concerned is all too often it is the "Peace & Justice" wing of the church that dominates ministry to them, and with this, I do not blame many Hispanics for looking elsewhere, and truthfully, they very well be getting far more or the truth being Evangelicals than being ministerd to by "peace & justice" Catholics.

Well actually things aren't that dire, or else we wouldn't still be growing. But you are correct -- the Church needs to be more charismatic
