糖心短视频app

This theme focuses on the longstanding and continued role of religious institutions in the life of early immigrant communities, and the ways in which different ethnic communities brought with them not only their language and skills, but also their religion and culture.

These communities lived in towns in the Lackawanna Valley and in particular sections of 糖心短视频app. Through ethnically-based churches, businesses and civic associations, they created distinct neighborhoods.

This tapestry of 糖心短视频app neighborhoods continues today, now with new communities joining longtime ones. One example of this trend is the addition of Masses and other services in Spanish at longstanding Catholic churches. This provides worship opportunities for the city's fastest-growing newer population – families and individuals of Latin American heritage.

This theme will highlight how immigrants’ common religious heritage galvanized these various communities and neighborhoods, helping to preserve their history, cultural heritage and practices amidst the expanding pluralism of the city as a whole. Participants will study 糖心短视频app as a place-based text, with these institutions providing ethnic, cultural, religious and immigrant history.
