I recently met Patty Jimenez and her husband Vince Olea at the Diocese of Boise Convocation. They are the founders of ushispanicministry.com. Below is information about their mission and website.

Accompanying the Diverse Hispanic Reality in the U.S.
We are just like you, co-workers in the vineyard, living our Catholic faith by walking alongside others. Over the years we have dreamed of a gathering place where we can meet and hear from those doing similar work. From leaders in the fields to theologians, we all experience the grace-filled mixture of blessings and challenges within the diverse realities of Hispanics in the U.S. In support of these voices, we also dreamed of a place that supplies access to a variety of resources and facilitates a network for the benefit of all of us serving Hispanic ministry in the U.S. We are pleased to offer U.S. Hispanic Ministry as that place.

Our Mission
U.S. Hispanic Ministry believes that Hispanic ministry serves the entire Church and accompanies all Hispanics in their lived contexts and languages. Contributing to this mission, we offer three means of interaction.

1. Unique and Diverse Voices. From recent immigrants who may only speak Spanish, to Hispanics who are bilingual and bicultural, to 3rd and 4th generation U.S. born Hispanics who may only speak English, U.S. Hispanic Ministry is committed to promoting a dialogue around the diverse and unique communities within the U.S. Hispanic population. In order to generate these discussions, we offer a rotation of lively contributors, each giving voice to her/his community and prompting questions, insights and challenges. Articles, Facebook interaction, Twitter discussions, and other exciting social gathering vehicles will help build community at a local and national level.
2. Resources. U.S. Hispanic Ministry is dedicated to gathering quality resources and highlighting established and new ministerial models, services, and offerings. U.S. Hispanic Ministry invites all ministries, educational institutions, organizations, catechetical publishers, and service providers working with and for Hispanic communities to join us by providing a summary of who you are, your logo, and a link to your website.
3. Networking. Networking at U.S. Hispanic Ministry may happen organically through your participation in Facebook and Twitter, or commenting on our posts. U.S. Hispanic Ministry will create secure and purposeful ways to network with and accompany one another.

By providing a comprehensive central website, we believe U.S. Hispanic Ministry contributes to the forward moving efforts needed to accompany the growing diversity of Catholic Hispanics in the U.S.
