Abstract In the studies of socio-religious change in the Chaco, the active role of the Chaco Aboriginal groups in the processes of Christian misionalization is well grounded. It has been thoroughly studied how these processes involved cultural creativity, leading to a new socio-religious reality that emerged from complex interactions between pre-Christian conceptions and practices, and those resulting from the incorporation of the Chaco into the national territory. However, the complexities engaged in these processes´ specificities and their role in the construction of alternative forms of modernity are aspects that still require more intense study. In particular, in the case of the Moqoit people, a Chaco group that is subordinate to the Qom people, the specificities of their responses to missionary action need to be addressed. In this work, we analyze a conflict in a Moqoit evangelical congregation as a total social fact, which allows us to highlight various dimensions that are put into play in the contemporary socio-religious dynamics of this group.
