Centro Romero facilitates educational-transformational immersion seminars along the border focusing on issues of globalization, economic policies, immigration, and community empowerment.  Participants have the opportunity to meet with people of different perspectives on a variety of social, political, economical, faith, and environmental issues. Centro Romero strives to coordinate visits and talks with people whose lives on both sides of the border and that are directly affected by the challenges of the U.S. – Mexico border (San Diego-Tijuana).

The mission of the Centro Romero is to create an environment whereby social transformation can take place by:

    • Further understanding of the migratory realities between Latin America and the United States
    • Providing immersion and educational opportunities in the city of Tijuana, Mexico
    • Enabling participants to enhance their political, socio-economic, and cultural views of the forces that are shaping the lives of many countries and families throughout the continent
    • Reflecting theologically on the constant migratory exchanges between both sides of the border

Upcoming Events:

Nov. 12-14: Public Education North of the Border
Dec. 7-11: Environmental Disasters

Jan.8-9: Pastoral Summit at the Border: Understanding how globalization might be affecting your ministry
Feb. 5-6: Native American Spirituality
