Taking into consideration that the celebration of the “Fifteenth
Birthday” is a Hispanic family tradition and that evangelization
touches the whole community of faith, the CCE Office offers
training once a year to the parish team/coordinator of the
Quinceañeras. The training includes information on the history
of the Quince Años celebration, models of preparation, how to
form parish teams, music, Eucharistic celebration and other
elements related to the Catholic Christian celebration of this
tradition.
These guidelines have been promulgated by the (Arch)bishop of this (Arch)diocese and represent the local norms for the celebration of the Quinceañera. It is the responsibility of pastors and catechetical leaders to implement these guidelines in their respective parishes. Consequently, these files are password protected. If you are a pastor or parish catechetical leader, contact the CCE office at 713-741-8730 or email kbroniko@archgh.org or vshutte@archgh.org for the password.
