Who they are
The Pilagá are an Indigenous people native to the Gran Chaco, living mainly in northern Argentina near the Pilcomayo River. Traditionally gatherers, fishers, and artisans, they keep their language and a strong sense of community alive. The gospel message has been widely accepted among them, profoundly shaping the social and religious life of their villages.
