An Anglican Toolbox for Spanish-speaking Communities
La tradición anglicana ofrece un rico conjunto de herramientas (históricas, teológicas, litúrgicas y espirituales) que han dado forma a comunidades cristianas fieles a lo largo de siglos y culturas. Este curso equipa a líderes hispanohablantes para recibir, evaluar y desplegar esas herramientas en sus propios contextos, preguntándose cómo propiciar que el anglicanismo "hable" los idiomas que sus comunidades ya conocen. A partir de los recursos de la historia anglicana, el Libro de Oración Común, la tradición homilética y marcos de contextualización crítica, los estudiantes construirán un repositorio de recursos teológicos y prácticos para un ministerio más profundo y arraigado. El curso se imparte íntegramente en español, en un formato residencial intensivo de cinco días, y está diseñado para líderes ordenados y laicos que ya sirven en contextos anglicanos hispanohablantes.
The Anglican tradition offers a rich set of tools—historical, theological, liturgical, and spiritual—that have shaped faithful Christian communities across centuries and cultures. This course equips Spanish-speaking leaders to receive, evaluate, and apply these tools in their own contexts, exploring how to enable Anglicanism to “speak” the languages their communities already know. Drawing on the resources of Anglican history, the Book of Common Prayer, the homiletic tradition, and frameworks of critical contextualization, students will build a repository of theological and practical resources for a deeper and more rooted ministry. The course is taught entirely in Spanish, in an intensive five-day residential format, and is designed for ordained and lay leaders already serving in Spanish-speaking Anglican contexts.
Mr. David Zamora's journey to Trinity began with a law degree in Colombia and ministry experience in an Anglican church in Wales. He came to Trinity as a student, earning his MDiv in 2020 while his wife pursued her own academic work. Now serving as Director of the Spanish Academic Program since 2018, he brings together his passion for Scripture, cross-cultural ministry experience, and doctoral research on the Hebrew Prophets to equip Spanish-speaking leaders for the Church.
Mr. Zamora introduces the Anglican Tradition as a dynamic reservoir of theological insights that students must critically engage and adapt for their ministry contexts. Through courses like "Anglicanismo Global" and "Introducción al Antiguo Testamento," he helps Spanish-speaking students bridge their cultural experiences with global Anglican heritage. His focus on the Old Testament's prophetic dimensions empowers students to see Scripture as a living source for contemporary faith and practice.
He treasures Trinity's communal rhythms of prayer and fellowship, where spiritual life and academic pursuit are deeply intertwined. His hope is that students become pastors intimately invested in their communities, embodying God's ongoing renovation of the world. David enjoys spending time with his wife Yina—hiking, cooking, and discovering new places together. He also loves stories in all media and plays and watches real football (what United Statesians call 'soccer'). Moved by refined taste, he supports the club that has sometimes elevated the sport to an art form.
