The
missionary work of the Seventh-day Adventist Church started in Southern
Malawi in 1902, and histories of churches are usually told from that
starting point. This book uses a different approach, it tells the story
of Lunjika Mission (earlier called Mombera Mission) which begins in
1932, showing how the SDA Church met a new culture, that of the strongly
patrilineal Ngoni and their neighbours to the North, and how it dealt
with other churches that had started missionary work in that broad area
up to two generations before.
