ABOUT THE PROFESSOR
Br. Gilberto Cavazos-González, OFM is a Tejano, a Friar Minor (Franciscan) and Professor of the Theological Study of Christian Spirituality. He taught for 15 years at the Catholic Theological Union before moving to Rome to work at the Pontifical University Antonianum (PUA). In March of 2020 he became the pontifically appointed Secretary of the Pontificia Academia Mariana Internationalis (PAMI). In June of 2022 Pope Francisco freed him from his position with PAMI so that he could return to CTU as Professor of Spirituality and the John Duns Scotus Chair of Franciscan Spirituality. Gilberto lived in Rome for almost 15 years, first as a doctoral student in the 1990s and, more recently, working for the PUA, the PAMI and the OFM general curia. Besides being a Franciscan, he is a Franciscanologist who specializes in the spirituality of Clare and Francis of Assisi as expressed in their own writings. |
