Official correspondence with the Crown on the subject of church structures, written with fundraising in mind, continually emphasized the sad and dilapidated state into which the house of God had fallen. In 1653, for example, the treasury officials reported the main church to be leaking, termite ridden, and falling down-no way, they said, for a church of Spaniards to look to Indians from the provinces (Las Heras and Prado, 1653).
