Mestizo Worship is an important reflection for the Catholic school administrator. With changing demographics due to a mass influx of Hispanic immigrants and an increasingly higher percentage of American births of Hispanic descent, schools must prepare themselves for a new and often Spanishspeaking ethnic majority in their communities. In the American Catholic Church of the 21st century, where studies reflect rapidly increasing numbers of believers to be a Hispanic majority, the school leader is compelled to develop understanding both as a professional and as an agent of spiritual development among the school's community. Here the reader is empowered with an appreciation for the rich expressions of popular religiosity that have been and continue to be so important to Hispanic Americans. Among the most renowned contributing scholars and practitioners of Hispanic theology, Elizondo and Matovina offer a three-part thematic approach in Mestizo Worship that explores the significance and history of popular devotions in Hispanic communities in the southwestern United States and, more particularly, in San Antonio, Texas. Defining and describing various forms of popular religiosity, Elizondo shows how devotions are integral to the catechetical and cultural formation of the Hispanic experience. Matovina reinforces this by providing concrete explanations of similar devotions in liturgy, worship, and Hispanic celebrations of the sacraments. This book provides concrete and descriptive examples of such devotions, describes their cultural context in light of the people's history of conquest and reconquest, and nurtures discovery of the sacred through Hispanic expressions of faith. Through Hispanic devotions to Our Lady of Guadalupe, for example, Elizondo and Matovina posit that a new people emerge from the downtrodden and defeated history of the Mexican people:
