Synopsis:

Meet Sony Garcia. Wife. Artist. Singer. Guitar Player. Director of Pastoral Juvenil (Youth Ministry) for our Office of Hispanic Ministry. Teacher at Little Flower. Director of Music for Spanish Mass at St. Catherine’s. And much more! Listen how the Lord brought Sonya to our Native Soil from Puerto Rico. Marvel at how the Lord got her attention to get involved in our Church in so many different ways!

Dig In Further:

Are you artistic? Where did that gift come from? It is rather mysterious to consider. How might God be calling you to put your artistic gifts at the service of God and his people?

Have you ever experienced a song take you to a place very close to God? Had a song open your heart to hear God’s voice or feel his presence? Take a minute to thank God for this moment. Thank God for the gifts he has given the artists in our lives. And consider what kind of music…art in general you want to surround yourself with.

Have you ever been to a Spanish Mass? If not, why not give it a try? Experience the width and breath of Christ’s Body here on our Native Soil. Open yourselves to the different languages, rhythms and songs that cry out to God in our midst.

The youth need much encouragement, care and inspiration in the faith. How can you come alongside Sonya and other youth ministers throughout our Archdiocese to help form our next generation of Catholics?
