Ethnic Ministries

"When an alien resides with you in your land, do not molest him. You shall treat the alen who resides with you no differently than the natives born among you; have the same love for him as for your self; for you too were once aliens in the land of Egypt. I, the LORD, and your God."
           -Leviticus 19:33-34

The Secretariat for Ethnic Ministries collaborates with diocesan ministries and agencies to provide resources and services that support ethnic communities within the diocese and acts as a consultant to the broader community on issues concerning diversity.
