This past Tuesday was Bolivia’s independence day and turned 187 years old. Bolivia gained it’s independence through much turmoil and struggle, and has continued, in spite of many difficulties through the years. Through it all we praise the Lord for the continued opportunity to preach the gospel freely and without restriction. This year we did something a little different for our Sunday service where we were celebrating this day. We divided the church into three groups following the colors of the Bolivian flag, red, yellow and green. These groups had to answer questions about the history of our country, from the year of it’s independence to the colors of the first flag. Then we all sang the national anthem together before the message. Everyone had a great time and I think I was not the only one that learned some new facts about the history of Bolivia.
