Luis De Prada
PhD Student in Practical Theology
Luis was born and raised in Cuba until his family decided to migrate to Miami, Florida, in 2008. After graduating from high school, he decided to pursue a BA in Theology and Philosophy and soon thereafter discerned to continue graduate studies in Practical Theology. Before coming to Boston University, Luis had been teaching Catholic Social Thought and World Religions at Immaculata La Salle High School, where he engaged the youth in and outside of the classroom under both academic and ministerial roles. Throughout his theological formation, Luis has developed a genuine passion for the arts, especially music, social sciences, service, social justice, and most importantly, faith in its ever-enriching multicultural environment. Thus, he is very fascinated with the dynamics of spirituality and social activism in the evolving journey of the Church in the contemporary world, especially among the US Latiné communities to which he hopes to dedicate his PhD studies.
