Deacon Enedino Aquino retires after 28 years of Hispanic Ministry

Deacon Enedino Aquino is retiring from the Hispanic Ministry of the Diocese of Charlotte after 28 years of service. During his tenure, he served the vicariates of Winston-Salem and Greensboro.

Sister Joan Pearson, who worked with Aquino for more than two decades, noted his dedication to reaching immigrant workers. She recalled traveling with him to Forsyth County to distribute Bibles and holy water to men working in construction and landscaping. Sister Pearson said Aquino focused on bringing ministry directly to where people lived to share the faith.
