Paraguay legislative recognition of Evangelical Church

Overview

The Paraguayan Senate approved a bill to establish the ‘National Day of the Evangelical Church of the Republic of Paraguay’. The legislation seeks to recognize the historical, social, and spiritual contributions of evangelical communities to the nation’s development.

During the legislative process, several modifications were made to the original proposal. The date for the commemoration was changed from October 31 to the last Sunday of October. Additionally, an amendment was accepted to remove a requirement that would have mandated the Ministry of Education and Sciences to include the date in the official school calendar. The measure is intended as a commemorative date rather than a national holiday, meaning it will not require the suspension of school, commercial, or administrative activities. The bill is set to proceed to the Chamber of Deputies.
