The Parish of San Isidro sits high on the outskirts of the city of La Paz, Bolivia.
The church and seminary that serves the parish is run by the Yarumal
Missioners who have built the structure largely by themselves, adding to it
over the years. The church meets in the converted basement/patio.
The seminary is one of only two that Yarumal operates in Bolivia and is of
vital importance to sustaining the far-reaching work the Fathers are doing in
Bolivia as well as in Columbia, Ecuador, Africa and Cambodia.
