FUTURE ORDINATION CLASSES (SEMINARIANS 2011)

PERCENTAGE OF HISPANICS BY GENERATION

 Self-administered, national online survey, conducted in May and June 2012  Scientific, probability-based sample of 1,428 never-married Catholics ages 14 and older [R: 14-35] Males (average age 26):  Six in ten are adults (18 or older)  36% Non-Hispanic white adults, 20% non-Hispanic white teens  19% Hispanic adults, 16% Hispanic teens  4% Other race adults, 5% other race teens Females (average age 28):  Seven in ten are adults (18 or older)  40% Non-Hispanic white adults, 15% non-Hispanic white teens  22% Hispanic adults, 13% Hispanic teens  7% Other race adults, 3% other race teens VOCATION SURVEY CHARACTERISTICS

Most important:  Those who attended Catholic educational institutions at any level  Those who were encouraged to consider a vocation by any type of person  Those who personally know priests and men and women religious  Those involved in parish youth and young adult groups KEY SUBGROUPS MOST LIKELY TO HAVE CONSIDERED A VOCATION

Minority student enrollment in Catholic schools has been hit hard by the recession. In NCEA reported that 27% of students in U.S. Catholic schools were something other than Non-Hispanic white. This dropped to 19% in the school year (currently 14% of students are Hispanic). SUBGROUP: CATHOLIC EDUCATION

SUBGROUP: ENCOURAGEMENT (MALE)

SUBGROUP: ENCOURAGEMENT (FEMALE)

Also Important: Weekly Mass attenders (now and in high school) Those who lived in households where parents talked to them about religion at least once a week Participants in prayer and devotional activities, groups, or programs (e.g., Bible study, Eucharistic adoration, retreats, and prayer groups) Those belonging to a group that encourages devotion to Mary Those who regularly read the Bible or pray with Scripture Participants in World Youth Day or a National Catholic Youth Conference OTHER KEY SUBGROUPS

 Institutionally they are less connected to the Church  However, Latinos have some unique cultural supports for religious participation.  While Hispanics are no different than others in regular Mass attendance, they are much more likely to participate in prayer and devotional practices in the home, and to attend Marian feast day Masses.  Spiritual talk at home rates higher among Latina respondents, particularly during high school.  Higher participation rates in World Youth Day, and higher participation in NCYC for Hispanic adults. HISPANIC CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES

A KEY CHALLENGE: LEVEL OF EDUCATION
