Presbyterian statuary



Our friends the Boersmas, who are missionaries in South Africa, recently visited Brazil. In Rio de Janeiro, they found what claims to be the first Presbyterian Church building in that nation (although I wonder if they didn't put up something a little more modest to begin with). In the plaza it faces are several statues demonstrating presbyterian distinctives. Notice how everyone in the pews are carefully examining their Bibles in response to the preached word. Does my curmudgeony heart good.
