Haciendo Caminos: A Retreat for All Saints and All Souls

Rooted in Latino Catholic traditions, the Haciendo Caminos retreat provides space to pray, reflect, and sit with memory. Through story, music, and silence, participants will reflect on the feasts of All Saints and All Souls, and on the people whose lives continue to shape their own.

The retreat will be led by Natalia Imperatori-Lee, Ph.D., a Fordham graduate and associate professor of theology. Her work focuses on feminist and Latinx theologies and the ways women claim credibility, both inside and outside the Church. She’s written for Commonweal, America, and The Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion, and is the author of Cuéntame and Women and the Church.

The event also introduces Fordham’s partnership with Haciendo Caminos, a national effort to support Latino Catholics who are discerning lives of service, ministry, and education. Fordham is one of 18 institutions across the country helping to form that next generation of leadership.

The program starts with a presentation in McShane 260, followed by a 3:30 p.m. Mass celebrated by Francis X. McAloon, S.J. (M.Div., STL, Ph.D.). Pan de Muertos and hot chocolate will be served afterward.

All are welcome! To attend, please RSVP to Luz Marina Díaz, Ph.D., at [email protected].
