| Summary: | CIVINS === CIVINS program thesis === This project focuses on preaching and presiding within the sea services, to serve Roman Catholic sailors and marines and their families. It is intended primarily for Roman Catholic priest Navy chaplains who find, as I have found, that preaching and presiding with Roman Catholics in today's military environment presents a cross cultural challenge. The active duty Navy population on 30 September 2002 was 10% Latino and 4% Filipino. The active duty Marine Corps population on the same date was 13% Latino and 3% Asian/Pacific Islander. The active duty Coast Guard population in March 2002 was 7% Latino and 2% Asian American. These numbers may not seem very high, but Latinos and Filipinos account for a much higher percentage of the Roman Catholic population than of the sea service population in general. In some duty stations, they outnumber European American Roman Catholics. |
