Iglesia peruana reflexionando sobre la discriminación / The Peruvian Church Reflects on Discrimination

Fuera de los elementos políticos e intereses económicos que se han vislumbrado en el conflicto del gobierno peruano con las comunidades nativas, la iglesia cristiana debe retomar el tema de la discriminación.


Cuando el presidente del Perú señala tan sarcásticamente que el Congreso de la República se ha convertido en una "chichería", realmente está diciendo ¿para qué tenemos congresistas indígenas siendo parte de este congreso?.


Una de las iglesias del Presbiterio Lima Norte, está invitando a las iglesias del Presbiterio Lima Nor-Este a participar de una Jornada de Participación y Reflexión para tratar este tema.



Motivamos a nuestros lectores a retomar una lectura bíblica-teológica de los nuevos mecanismos de discriminación que están surgiendo para los injustamente llamados "ciudadanos de segunda categoría".
Fortalezcamos nuestras redes de comunicación, que permitan compartir las experiencias y realidades que vivimos en nuestros pueblos latinoamericanos.

Aside from the political and economic interests that have been revealed in the Peruvian government's recent conflict with native communities, what should concern the Christian church most is the issue of discrimination.

When the president of Peru sarcastically states that the Congress has turned into a "chichería," (derogatory term referring to common parties held among people in Indigenous regions), really what he's saying is "Why do we even have Indigenous people serving as representatives in Congress?"

One of the churches in the Presbytery of Northern Lima is inviting the churches of Northeast Lima Presbytery to attend a Day of Reflection and Participation to address this issue.

We encourage our readers to acquire a biblical-theological understanding of the new manner in which discrimination is manifested against unfairly called "second-class citizens."
Let us strengthen our communication network, so that we can all share in the experiences and realities in which we live as Latin American people.
