A Moravian Missionary Among the Bushmen

ONE of the early Moravian missionaries to South Africa started a school among the Bushmen. When the Dutch government found that his converts were learning to read and write and to lead intelligent Christian lives, they sent the missionary home. But every day of his life for over forty years he prayed for his beloved Bushmen, and was at last found, like Livingstone, dead upon his knees. But his prayers were answered; for when the Moravian Church resumed the work half a century afterward, they found some faithful converts of the pioneer missionary.—Via Christi.
