We go to an eng. Catholic Mass...Sundays, 10:15am, Santo Domingo para Nina's (next to the boys school). Really nice community. The school is very close to CNG. PM me if you want more info. Not sure about Presbyterian.

Travel Family! I have been asking about a Catholic mass in English for a year! Can you please give me more detailed directions or the address? I just got back from mass in Spanish and it was very hard keeping my mind on the homily! I will be there next week - this is very exciting!!

geoff71 - one of my students told me about a place, but later I realized it was protestant and now I cant remember where. They are out there though. The city paper should run info like this.

There is a protestant church that give service in English. It is near the upper end of Calle 68 near 4 or 3. When I lived on 68 I attended there. Sorry I dont have more information it has been about 11 years

I think some of the catholic churches might be bilingual - Spanish and Latin.

Wow, no only did the mormons spell Colombia wrong, but who the heck claimed it to be the 'most beautiful building in Bogota, if not all of Columbia (sic)' ?! good grief!

I am sure that it is the most beautiful Mormon structure in all of Bogota.

Interesting how one word changes the entire meaning. :)

Azunoman,
I really don't see that happening anytime soon. I have to learn Spanish first (Work-in-progress). Perhaps, if I retire in Colombia, I will take up teaching English in another fifteen or twenty years.

Then again, your comment was thinly veiled hostile sarcasm, so piss off. :)

There's a Presbyterian church near my place. It's on Calle 24 between K 5 & 6, across the street from the Biblioteca Nacional.

I don't know if they have English services; but they built the place to look nice and Protestant.
