A Christian Studies Center in Buenos Aires!

Many of you know that I have lived in Buenos Aires―for fifteen years. For about ten years, informally and now formally, friends and I have functioned as a learning community. We are discovering how to love God with our minds and to engage the culture with the biblical worldview.

These are the vision and mission of the Centro de Estudios Cristianos Kuyper:

Vision: We want to be a community that cultivates thinking about all of reality in light of the biblical worldview and exerts a redemptive and missional influence in the university, the public sphere, and the church.

Mission: We provide a space for community dialogue and learning based on the biblical worldview, offering resources, programs and services to students, academics, leaders, and anyone who wants to participate, with a local and regional focus.

Two members of our leadership team commented:

After years of reflection on how to love God with our minds and how to encourage the local church to do the same, our first conferences at the Kuyper Study Center have given us a very pleasant surprise: the church in Argentina has begun to awaken. Many have expressed with enthusiasm that this is the place they needed to bring their doubts and ideas. (Micaela Ozores)

We perceive a need among Christians associated with the university, such as academics and students, for a study center … where one can learn and openly debate topics that are rarely discussed in local churches or in culture in general. This Center has significant potential in formative, apologetic and evangelistic terms in the context and history of our country. (Alejandro Toja)
