Bridging Cultures and Hemispheres: The Legacy of Archibald Reekie and Canadian Baptists in Bolivia

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.
