Book Description

Bridging Cultures and Hemispheres examines the establishment and development of the Canadian Baptist Missions in Bolivia from the perspective of Canadian and Bolivian writers. Canadian Baptists made a major contribution to the establishment of evangelical Protestantism in Latin America. The chief pioneer during this movement was Archibald Reekie (1861-1942). Because of efforts of men like Reekie, there is now a thriving Bolivian Baptist community in partnership with other North American and Latin American Christians.
