In each Latin American country, including Argentina, some intermarried between the European colonizers and the indigenous peoples. Their children were called mestizos, and culturally they could be European, Indigenous, or somewhere in between.
Some Europeans remained separate from the indigenous peoples. They might identify with their country, while a small minority identify with Spain. Argentina is a Latin American country with a high percentage of White people, since there were not many indigenous peoples in this part of the Americas when the Spanish arrived.
Most live in Argentina, but there is a sizable diaspora in the United States and Spain. Others live in Mexico, Uruguay, Denmark, Italy, or France.
Uruguay is a good destination for Argentines looking for work. Culturally and linguistically, they are very similar.
Argentinian White people may work in any economic activity: agriculture, cattle production, mining, commerce, industry, and services. Though they mostly occupy the middle, upper-middle and upper levels of Argentine society, there are many poor Argentinian Whites. They eat much meat - beef, chicken and pork - and many other dishes derived from their Spanish and Italian traditions: spaghetti, gnocchi, ravioli, paella, stew, puchero, etc.
White Argentinians are usually Roman Catholic, but they also have a strong Evangelical minority, especially in Argentina.
They need revival fire to bless their churches, families, and neighborhoods.
Pray for a Holy Spirit-led revival to bless White Argentines, leading them to a richer spiritual life in Christ.
Pray for them to become a powerful force for discipleship among those without the gospel throughout Latin America.
Pray for the Lord to bless them materially and spiritually as they obey Christ.
