Latin America's Progressive Church

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Progressive Church in Latin America lost support when military dictatorships were established in the 1970s and 1980s, but regained support as these dictatorships came to an end. The church draws its primary support from the poor and marginalized, rather than the middle class. While the Progressive Church may have allies in the Catholic Church in other countries, it does not have close links to mainstream bishops in the United States or Germany.
