Hide Profile
The Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A.'s mission in Venezuela was established in 1897 with the arrival of Rev. and Mrs. Theodore S. Pond, who had been transferred from the neighboring mission in Colombia. Despite much prejudice toward Protestant evangelicals, a church was established there in 1900, and the station was formally organized by the Board of Foreign Missions as a separate mission in 1912. The mission was primarily educational and evangelical. Thought the mission is still in existence today, both it's size and the scope of it's activities have greatly diminished.
