Evangelical Waldensian Church of the Río de la Plata
Iglesia Evangélica Valdense del Rio de La Plata (IEVRP) Mesa Valdense
The Evangelical Waldensian Church of the Río de la Plata has communities in Argentina and Uruguay. The Waldensian Movement originated in the Middle Ages as a call to preach the Gospel freely and simply. These communities are the result of migration during the 19th century, following persecution in Italy and France. Therefore, the Evangelical Waldensian Church has two areas: Italian and Río de la Plata, organized by assemblies. The church accepts the challenge to transform the way of thinking and living toward a fuller life for everyone; to defend spaces of encounter where we can live our faith in diverse ways; to be a church that embraces differences and offers itself as an alternative to individualism; and to care for one another and for all of Creation.
La Iglesia Evangélica Valdense del Río de la Plata cuenta con comunidades en Argentina y Uruguay. El Movimiento Valdense surgió en la Edad Media como un llamado a predicar el Evangelio con libertad y sencillez. Estas comunidades son fruto de la migración ocurrida durante el siglo XIX tras la persecución en Italia y Francia. Por lo tanto, la Iglesia Evangélica Valdense cuenta con dos zonas: la italiana y la rioplatense, organizadas por asambleas. La iglesia asume el reto de transformar la forma de pensar y vivir hacia una vida más plena para todos; defender espacios de encuentro donde podamos vivir nuestra fe de diversas maneras; ser una iglesia que abrace las diferencias y se ofrezca como alternativa al individualismo; y cuidar los unos de los otros y de toda la creación.
