Tres Lomas Mennonite Church (Mennonite Church), located at Tres Lomas, F.C.O., province of Buenos Aires, about 325 miles west of the city of Buenos Aires. Work was started in Tres Lomas (1959 population, 4,000; 2006 population, 7,439) on 1 May 1925, by Amos Swartzentruber and wife and a congregation was organized by the end of the same year. It was considered a rather receptive town from the very first, probably because there was no Catholic church here. During the first five years 47 were received into the church by baptism and the 1957 membership was 43. The Swartzentrubers lived here from April 1925 until June 1934. The first Roman Catholic church was built here in 1940.
