SACRAMENTO, Calif., June12, 2015 – The National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference
(NHCLC/Conel) has appointed Dr. Andrea R. Ramirez as Executive Director of the Faith & Education Coalition. Dr. Ramirez will oversee key education initiatives for the NHCLC including their annual Education Sunday, the Raising the Standards project, and the Faith & Education Coalition. Dr. Ramirez will also direct strategic planning for the Hispanic Education Summit. She brings to this new role her broad experience as an academic, curriculum developer, and organizational leader. Dr. Carlos Campo, who led the NHCLC’s education initiative for the past year, will continue serving as Chair for the Alliance of Hispanic Education as he assumes a new role as President of Ashland University.

“We are honored to have Dr. Andrea Ramirez step into this vital leadership role,” comments Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, President of NHCLC/Conel. “She is uniquely equipped to lead our education initiatives, with a strong academic background as well as a passion for Latino student success. I’m excited to have her skills dedicated at this nexus of biblical justice – the crossroads of faith and education.”

Dr. Ramirez (MBA, PhD in Organizational Leadership) is leading strategic planning for Education Sunday, observed annually on the first Sunday of September (September 6, 2015) in thousands of Hispanic churches. Local church leaders can sign up for Education Sunday and download resources at www.FaithandEducation.com.

Ramirez encourages churches to make a difference for their students as they return to school this fall: “In light of the crisis in our country where the quality of children’s education is often dictated by zip code, Education Sunday calls upon the family of faith to get involved. Together we can help close the education equality gap for Hispanic students.”

“Education Sunday is just the beginning. We urge church leaders to go before the Father to ask for wisdom on how to best support students in their local communities,” says Ramirez. “As we commit ourselves to raising the standards for high and equal education across all states, we are empowering the next generation to love the Lord with all of their minds.”

NHCLC/CONEL education initiatives and resources are found online at www.faithandeducation.com, alongside links to Christian university and seminary partners.

NHCLC/CONEL is the world’s largest Hispanic Christian organization. It serves as a representative voice for the more than 100 million Hispanic Evangelicals assembled in over 40,000 U.S. churches and another 500,000 congregations spread throughout the Spanish-speaking diaspora.

La NHCLC anuncia el nombramiento de la
Dra. Andrea R. Ramírez como Directora Ejecutiva de la Coalición de Fe y Educación

Ramírez guiará las iniciativas de educación, entre ellas el Domingo de Educación Hispano, el proyecto Raising the Standards y la Coalición de Fe y Educación

SACRAMENTO, California, 12 de junio de 2015 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — La Conferencia Nacional de Liderazgo Cristiano Hispano (NHCLC/Conel) ha nombrado a la Dra. Andrea R. Ramírez como directora ejecutiva de la Coalición de Fe y Educación. La Dra. Ramírez se encargará de supervisar las iniciativas de educación clave para la NHCLC, entre ellas su Domingo de Educación anual, el proyecto Raising the Standards (Elevando los Estándares), y la Coalición de Fe y Educación. La Dra. Ramírez también dirigirá la planificación estratégica de la Cumbre de Educación Hispana y aportará a este nuevo cargo su amplia experiencia como académica, desarrolladora de plan de estudios y líder institucional. El Dr. Carlos Campo, que encabezó la iniciativa de educación de la NHCLC el año pasado, continuará sirviendo como presidente de la Alianza de Educación Hispana, al mismo tiempo que asume el nuevo cargo de presidente de Ashland University.

“Nos sentimos honrados de contar con la Dra. Andrea Ramírez en este puesto de liderazgo vital”, dijo el Rev. Samuel Rodríguez, presidente de la NHCLC/Conel. “Ella está excepcionalmente dotada para dirigir nuestras iniciativas de educación y posee una sólida formación académica, así como pasión por el éxito de los estudiantes latinos. Estoy entusiasmado de contar con sus habilidades, que serán dedicadas a este nexo de la justicia bíblica: la encrucijada de la fe y la educación”.

La Dra. Ramírez (MBA, PhD en Liderazgo Organizacional) está encabezando la planificación estratégica para el Domingo de Educación, celebrado anualmente el primer domingo de septiembre (6 de septiembre de 2015) en miles de iglesias hispanas. Los líderes de las iglesias locales pueden inscribirse en el Domingo de Educación y descargar recursos en el sitio www.FaithandEducation.com. Ramírez anima a las iglesias a marcar la diferencia para sus estudiantes cuando regresen a la escuela este otoño: “A la luz de la crisis en nuestro país, donde la calidad de la educación de los niños es a menudo dictada por el código postal [en que residen], el Domingo de Educación hace un llamado a la familia de la fe para que sean partícipes. Juntos podemos ayudar a cerrar la brecha de la igualdad de la educación para los estudiantes hispanos”.

“El Domingo de Educación es sólo el comienzo. Instamos a los líderes de la iglesia para ir ante el Padre y pedirle sabiduría sobre la mejor manera de apoyar a los estudiantes en sus comunidades locales”, dijo Ramírez. “A medida que nos comprometemos a elevar los estándares de educación a un nivel alto e igualitario en todos los estados, estamos empoderando a la próxima generación para amar al Señor con todas sus facultades”.

Las iniciativas y recursos de educación de la NHCLC/Conel se pueden encontrar en línea en el sitio www.faithandeducation.com, junto con enlaces a los socios de universidades y seminarios cristianos.

La NHCLC / CONEL es la mayor organización cristiana hispana del mundo. Sirve como la voz representativa para los más de 100 millones de evangélicos hispanos en más de 40,000 iglesias de Estados Unidos y otras 500,000 congregaciones extendidas por toda la diáspora de habla hispana.
