What the Church offers them are the rituals of formation and a host’s temporary benevolence. Their expressed spirituality sees sacraments as means of grace towards a higher status through competition. The quest for earthly status by using sacraments as means to economic salvation is an expression of a progressive spirituality. This thesis closes the gap between spirituality and earthly status through a progressive form of liberation theology as an evangelistic framework, using farming as an ancient and economically beneficial ritual.en-USAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/TheologyCurriculum developmentFarming as a ritual of formationMigrants statusPoverty and ministryPriesthood and spirituality of progressTheology of progressThesis/Dissertation2023-04-250000-0002-2432-0450
