Summary edit

Description
English: Congo Balolo Mission — missionary and village boys, Congo (present day Democratic Republic of the Congo), ca. 1900-1910
  • Black and white lantern slide showing a Congo Balolo Mission missionary with a group of village boys. The boys are bare chested, and wear cloths around their waists. A Congolese man in trousers and shirt can be seen at one side of the group, who could be a native evangelist.
  • This slide comes from a collection generated by missionaries working for the Congo Balolo Mission, a mission begun in 1889 under the supervision of the East London Training Institute for Home and Foreign Missions that developed into the interdenominational evangelical mission Regions Beyond Missionary Union after 1900.
