Missionaries of the Precious Blood in Perú

Missionaries of the Precious Blood serve in Lima, Perú, and in La Oroya, Perú.

Lima is Perú's capital and largest city. Missionaries serve at San Francisco de Borja and at Nuestra Señora de la Luz, which is in Santa Luzmila, a relatively new development in a very poor area of Lima.

La Oroya, a city of about 33,000 people, is known for its copper smelter, lead smelter, and zinc refinery, which together have made it one of "the world's worst polluted places." La Oroya's elevation is 12,287 ft (3,745 m) above mean sea level.

Missionaries of the Precious Blood serve at Parroquia Cristo Rey in La Oroya (satellite image) and actively promote and defend the interests of the people of La Oroya. Wikipedia on La Oroya
