The emotional sincerity and the religious conviction of southern Peruvian evangelicals cannot be underestimated. This study has shown that despite undergoing complex and arduous external pressures in its formative years, the evangelical church of Apurimac and Ayacucho from 1980 to 1992 not only survived but somehow flourished. Evangelicals died for a variety of reasons. They refused to join the armed struggle. They demanded respect from the established government. They were the authority in many remote villages and thus attracted opposition by Shining Path. They preached directly against the terrorists. They suffered military and police repression. And, by and large, they oriented their lives around the glory of God. It is this author’s hope that in some way this work pays due tribute to the men and women, the sons and daughters, who, for reasons of devotion to Christian faith, were tortured and killed between the years of 1980 and 1992, to the family and friends that miss them, and to those who have kept the faith since the terror of the Shining Path.
