Abstract: This study delves into the religious pathways undertaken by both women and men within the rural community of Quispillacta, situated in the Cangallo province of Ayacucho, Peru. This research systematically and critically assesses the religious evolution that has transpired in recent years, emphasizing the development of identities and affiliations within non-Catholic belief systems. The study seeks to elucidate the strategic initiatives employed by religious actors to foster coexistence, scrutinize conflicts, and dissect power dynamics. By examining the intricate social fabric that intertwines Catholic adherents, the Assembly of God of Peru, Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth, and individuals who do not subscribe to religious beliefs, this study highlights how diverse groups sustain distinct identities and social bonds. Notably, they leverage their Andean rationale to formulate strategies aimed at promoting intercultural coexistence.
