Katika karne ya kumi na saba, misheni ya Quaker iliwepo katika visiwa vinavyozungumza Kiingereza barani Caribbean, hasa Jamaica na Barbados, lakini si katika maeneo yanayozungumza Kihispania ya Amerika. Mikutano hiyo inayozungumza Kiingereza\u2014iliyojazwa na Wazungu walioishi katika visiwa hivyo\u2014iliisha katika karne ya kumi na nane, ingawa Quakerism nchini Jamaica ilianza tena katika miaka ya 1880, wakati wamisionari wa Quaker wa Amerika Kaskazini walileta injili kwa Wajamaica Weusi. Mfano huo wa baadaye wa Quakerism ya Kijamaica unaendelea leo. <\/p>\n\n

Uinjilisti miongoni mwa watu wanaozungumza Kihispania barani Amerika ulianza katika sehemu ya mwisho ya karne ya kumi na tisa, ukifadhiliwa na Marafiki wa Orthodox wa Kimarekani wenye ushawishi wa kiinjili. Wa kwanza kuinjilishwa walikuwa Wameksiko, kuanzia kazi ya kuwafikia kutoka Indiana Yearly Meeting Friends mnamo 1871. Mkutano wa kila mwezi ulianzishwa katika Jiji la Mexico mnamo 1888, na Marafiki mbalimbali nchini Marekani wameshiriki katika kazi ya kuwafikia Wameksiko tangu wakati huo. Marafiki mbalimbali walianza kazi ya umisheni nchini Cuba mnamo 1898, karibu wakati wa Vita vya Kihispania\u2013Kimarekani. <\/p>\n\n

Safari ya mwaka 1901 ya wamisionari Thomas J. Kelly na Clark J. Buckley kwenda Guatemala ilianza kazi ya Quaker ya kuwafikia watu katika Amerika ya Kati. Uwepo wa misionari wa Marafiki nchini Bolivia ulianza mnamo 1919, na imani ilichukua mizizi miongoni mwa watu wa Aymara. Misheni hii ya Quaker ilienea kupitia mipaka ya kimataifa. Katika Amerika ya Kati, makanisa ya Marafiki yalienea hadi Honduras na El Salvador. Kutoka Bolivia, makanisa ya Marafiki yalienea hadi Peru. Pia kuna idadi ndogo ya Marafiki katika nchi nyingine za Amerika ya Kilatini. Ingawa kuhesabu idadi ya Marafiki katika nchi yoyote ni vigumu, kunaweza kuwa na Waquaker 30,000 hivi nchini Bolivia na 20,000 hivi nchini Guatemala. Hizo ndizo idadi kubwa zaidi za kitaifa za Marafiki katika Amerika ya Kilatini. Hii si orodha kamili. <\/p>\n\n

Misheni ya Quaker ilizuka kutokana na sababu mbalimbali. Misheni ya Quaker ilikuwa sehemu ya harakati ya kimisionari ya Kiprotestanti iliyotokana na bidii na kujitolea kwa kiwango kikubwa kushiriki ujumbe wa Kikristo ulimwenguni kote. Sababu hii ilipata nguvu kubwa kutoka kwa vikundi kama vile Wametodisti, Wabatisti, Wakristo wa Utakatifu, na hatimaye Wapentekosti. Waquaker wa Orthodox\u2014ingawa walikuwa wachache hata nchini Marekani\u2014walipangwa imara katikati ya harakati kama hizo. Wengi wa wamisionari wa Quaker walikuwa wanahitimu wa shule za utakatifu za Quaker, kama vile Training School for Christian Workers (sasa sehemu ya Azusa Pacific) huko Kusini mwa California. Walipoanza huduma zao katika Amerika ya Kilatini, mara nyingi walihubiri, kushika ibada za kanisa, na kusambaza Biblia. Mtindo wa jumla wa kazi ya umisheni wa Quaker katika Amerika ya Kilatini ulikuwa wa kiinjili na wenye mwelekeo wa Ukristo wa utakatifu, angalau mwanzoni. <\/p>\n\n

Pia ni kweli, hata hivyo, kwamba sifa za kipekee za Quaker zilielekea kuwa muhimu sana kwa wamisionari wa Marafiki, na hii iliwatofautisha kwa kiasi kikubwa na wamisionari wengine wa Kikristo wa Kiprotestanti. Waquaker, kwa mfano, waliunga mkono sana huduma ya wanawake na kwa ujumla walionyesha hili miongoni mwa waliobadilishwa Asili na wamisionari kutoka nje. Wainjilisti hawa wa Quaker kwa kawaida walihubiri kwamba sakramenti za Kikristo zilikuwa za kiroho; hii ilikuwa tofauti na, kwa mfano, Ubatizo wa maji wa wamisionari wengine wa Kikristo, na ilihitaji ufafanuzi fulani. Waquaker walishuhudisha kwa bidii kwa ajili ya amani: kwa gharama kubwa ya kibinafsi, vijana wa Quaker walijaribu kupata hadhi ya kukataa vita kwa dhamiri katika Vita vya Chaco kati ya Bolivia na Paraguay kati ya 1932 na 1935. Waquaker walijaribu bila mafanikio kupatanisha kati ya utawala wa Cuba wa muda mrefu wa Fulgencio Batista na mapinduzi ya Cuba yaliyoongozwa na Fidel Castro mnamo 1958. Sifa za kipekee kuhusu amani na msingi wa kiroho wa sakramenti zilifafanuliwa wazi katika Tamko la Imani la Richmond ambalo Marafiki wengi wa Orthodox walikubaliana nalo mnamo 1887 na ambalo baadaye lilitumika kuwa jiwe la msingi la kimafundisho kwa Marafiki hawa katika sehemu kubwa au yote ya karne ya ishirini. <\/p>\n\n

Muhimu zaidi ilikuwa kuanzishwa kwa shule na wamisionari wa Quaker. Kwa usahihi, hii si sifa ya kipekee ya Quaker\u2014madhehebu mengine ya Kikristo pia yalianzisha shule\u2014lakini ilikuwa kazi ambayo wamisionari wa Quaker walifuata kwa bidii na kwa azimio kubwa, uangalifu, na uvumilivu. Ni vigumu kufikiria jinsi Quakerism ya Amerika ya Kilatini ingeweza kuwa yote ambayo imekuwa bila, kwa mfano, Shule ya Mafunzo ya Biblia ya Berea iliyoanzishwa huko Chiquimula, Guatemala, na R. Esther Smith mnamo 1921. Labda mhitimu wake mwenye matokeo makubwa zaidi alikuwa Juan Ayllon, Mbolivia asili na mhitimu wa Berea ambaye alicheza jukumu muhimu katika kueneza Quakerism katika nchi yake. Wahitimu wengine wa Berea walihamasisha kazi ya umisheni nchini Guatemala na mikoa ya jirani ya Amerika ya Kati. Shule ya mafunzo ya Biblia ilianzishwa baadaye nchini Bolivia. Marafiki wa Cuba waliotaka kuwa mawaziri walihudhuria chuo kikuu cha kimataifa cha Kiprotestanti huko Matanzas, Cuba. Hata hivyo, chuo kikuu hicho hakikutoa mafundisho katika masomo ya amani au katika Quakerism, kwa hivyo mnamo 2013, Mkutano wa Kila Mwaka wa Cuba ulianzisha Taasisi ya Quaker ya Cuba ya Amani kukamilisha elimu ya mawaziri wao. <\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/a>
Juan Ayllon alikuwa miongoni mwa waliobadilishwa mapema kwa Quakerism nchini Bolivia. Aliondoka kwenda kusoma katika Shule ya Biblia ya Berea nchini Guatemala na kurudi La Paz mnamo 1924. Picha kutoka kwa chanzo kisichojulikana. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n

Lakini ingekuwa kosa kufikiri kazi ya Quaker kwa niaba ya elimu kama tu\u2014au hata kimsingi\u2014kuhusu kuelimisha mawaziri na wainjilisti. Kwa kweli, walifanya kazi kwa nia kubwa zaidi kuanzisha mtandao wa shule ambao pia ungejumuisha kile ambacho Wamarekani wangeita elimu ya msingi na ya sekondari. Nchini Cuba, shule kama hizo zilianzishwa katika vituo vinne vikuu vya umisheni katika mwisho wa mashariki wa kisiwa: Gibara, Holguin, Banes, na Puerto Padre. Wakati serikali ya Bolivia iliendesha shule kwa watoto, Iglesia Nacional Evang\u00e9lica de Los Amigos <\/em>(INELA) pia ilianzisha shule kama hizo, na idadi ya juu ya wanafunzi mnamo 1958 ilikuwa 644 watoto katika shule 25. <\/p>\n\n

Kazi hii ya kielimu wakati mwingine ilibainika kuwa isiyo sawa. Baada ya Mapinduzi ya Cuba ya 1958, serikali ilinyang’anya shule na majengo ya shule yaliyoendeshwa na Marafiki wa Cuba. Marafiki wa Cuba hawangeweza kudai majengo haya tena hadi karne ya ishirini na moja, na wakati huo, yalikuwa yameharibika. <\/p>\n\n

Juhudi za kielimu za Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini wakati mwingine zimevutia msaada wa kifedha kutoka kwa Marafiki wa Kaskazini Mwa Ulimwengu kupitia matawi ya Marafiki (Mfuko wa Elimu ya Quaker ya Bolivia ukiwa mfano wa mtoaji mmoja wa aina hiyo). Kama Rafiki wa Bolivia Emma Condori Mamani anaandika katika The Quaker World<\/em>, ”Ukristo wa Kiprotestanti ulimaanisha matumaini kwa Wabolivia walioishi maisha ya ukandamizaji… Waumini wa Aymara walielewa Ukristo kama njia ya maisha walipouona kazi ya wamisionari kwa ajili ya elimu na huduma za afya.” <\/p>\n\n

Wamisionari wa Quaker walipambana kuweka nafsi zao kuhusiana na mashambulizi ya ukoloni na harakati tofauti sana za kijamii na kisiasa za wakati wao. Marafiki wa Cuba wanatoa mfano wa wazi wa hili. <\/p>\n\n

Nahodha Lorenzo Dow Baker, rais wa Kampuni ya United Fruit, ambayo ilikuwa na shamba kubwa huko Banes, Cuba, alitoa msukumo kwa kuanzishwa kwa umisheni wa Quaker katika mwisho wa mashariki wa kisiwa. Wamisionari wa Quaker walichagua kuweka makao makuu ya Quaker ya Cuba huko Giabara, umbali fulani mashariki kando ya pwani kutoka Banes, wakitambua ingeweza kuwa na shida kutambulishwa kwa karibu sana na mradi huu wa kikoloni. Fulgencio Batista, dikteta mwenye rushwa aliyeondolewa madarakani katika mapinduzi ya Cuba, alikuwa mwanafunzi katika shule ya Marafiki huko Banes. Wakati alishikilia madaraka, Batista alijaribu kwa ujanja wakati mmoja kuathiri ushuhuda wa Quaker dhidi ya kamari na kusaidia elimu ya Quaker kwa kutenga sehemu ya fedha kutoka bahati nasibu ya kitaifa kwa shule za Marafiki. Waquaker walikataa fedha hizi. <\/p>\n\n

Hata hivyo, katika miaka ya mwanzo ya 1960, wakati Fidel Castro aliimarisha madaraka kwenye kisiwa, Marafiki wa Cuba walisumbuliwa sana katika ibada zao, na si kuzidisha kusema kwamba walilazimishwa kuingia chini ya ardhi kwa miongo miwili hivi. Waaminifu wachache waliweka kanisa la Marafiki wa Cuba hai wakati wa miaka hiyo ya ukandamizaji, wakati Marafiki wengine wa Cuba walihamia Miami, Florida. Katika miaka ya 1980, mamlaka ya Cuba wakawa na heshima zaidi kwa dini za Kikristo, na Waquaker wa Cuba waliweza kuanza tena ibada wazi kama Marafiki. <\/p>\n\n

Tangu katikati ya karne ya kumi na tisa, Waprotestanti wa kiinjili wamekuwa na lengo kuu kuanzisha makanisa yanayojitawala na yanayojitegemea. Marafiki wamekubali lengo hili. Kwa hiyo, wamisionari kutoka Kaskazini Mwa Ulimwengu walifanya kazi kuanzisha mikutano ya kila mwaka yenye uhuru katika nchi za Amerika ya Kilatini ambapo waliinjilisha. Mkutano wa Kila Mwaka ulianzishwa nchini Cuba mnamo 1927. Umisheni wa Marafiki wa Kiinjili ulianzisha Mkutano wa Kila Mwaka wa Mexico mnamo 1967. Guatemala na Bolivia zote mbili zina mikutano mingi ya kila mwaka, iliyoanzishwa katika miaka mbalimbali. Tarehe ya kuzaliwa ya Iglesia Nacional Evang\u00e9lica de los Amigos (INELA) nchini Bolivia inachukuliwa kuwa 1952. <\/p>\n\n

Uhusiano kati ya wamisionari kutoka Kaskazini Mwa Ulimwengu na mikutano ya kila mwaka ya Asili au makanisa ya Marafiki kutoka Kusini Mwa Ulimwengu kwa ujumla unajulikana kwa ushirikiano na migogoro. Mchakato wa kufikia uhuru kwa makanisa ya Asili si wa moja kwa moja kila wakati, kwani masuala ya usawa wa fedha na uongozi wa pamoja yanakuja mbele kabla na baada ya kuanzishwa kwa mikutano kama hiyo ya kila mwaka. <\/p>\n\n

Katika karne ya ishirini na moja, Marafiki kutoka Kaskazini Mwa Ulimwengu na Kusini Mwa Ulimwengu mara nyingi hukutana na kushiriki ushirika katika mikutano ya Section of the Americas ya Friends World Committee for Consultation (FWCC). Tukio moja la furaha la aina hiyo lilifanyika huko Chiquimula, Guatemala, mnamo 2006. Nancy Thomas, aliyeshiriki katika mikutano iliyounganisha Marafiki kutoka pande zote za Amerika na ile mahsusi kwa Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini, anaandika katika The Cambridge Companion to Quakerism<\/em> kwamba mkutano kwa Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini ulikuwa ”wenye sauti kubwa, wenye uhai zaidi, usiokuwa rasmi zaidi, na wenye ushiriki mkubwa zaidi,” wakati Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini pia walijikabidhi kwa neema katika mikutano ya mchanganyiko yenye hali tulivu zaidi. <\/p>\n\n

Kuna tofauti kubwa katika maisha ya kanisa na kujieleza kwa imani miongoni mwa Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini. Kanisa moja la Marafiki huko Chiquimula, Guatemala, lina jukwaa lililopandishwa mbele ya kanisa. Nilipotembea mnamo 2006, bango kwa herufi kubwa lilihimiza (kwa Kihispania) ”kunyamaza kimya mbele ya Bwana.” Kwenye jukwaa kulikuwa na seti kamili ya vyombo vya kupiga, ambavyo, ingawa havikupigwa nilipokuwa pale, bila shaka vimelia mara nyingi katika kanisa lote. Kati ya utulivu na pumziko wa Quaker uliohimizwa na bango na uhai wa kufurika wa muziki mtakatifu wa furaha unaofuatana na ngoma na matoazi, kuna uwezekano mkubwa wa ibada takatifu. Ndani ya uhusiano wa jamii za karibu, Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini wanatumia kikamilifu njia nyingi za kushuhudia utukufu na wema wa Mungu. Jumuiya ya Quaker ulimwenguni kote ina mengi ya kufaidika kutoka kwa ushuhuda wa uaminifu wa Marafiki wa Amerika ya Kilatini. <\/p>\n\n
