Christianity in Latin America

Explanation:

In Latin American, Christianity transformed lives of people in many ways, be it socially, political, economically or religiously during the period of 1500-1800. Evangelists played an important role in extensively preaching and influencing the minds and belief of Indians in Europe. The Indian tribes in South America were closely aligned to Mother Nature and its representation. The Aztecs, the Mayans, and the Incas based their religion, deities and Gods on representations of celestial stars, animals and nature. Aztecs and Mayans performed human sacrifices to honor their Gods. The evangelists changed those practices and introduced them to Chrstianity. Evangelists like Bartolomeo Diaz del Castillo encountered heavy resistance from the Indians. The evangelists first established their teaching centers, then built churches and influenced people.
