Description: | In the late 1960s, when I was a student at Makerere University in Kampala, Louise Pirouet, who was to become my rst supervisor, mentioned that it would be worth observing how a Christian denomination changes when it travels from one continent to another. When I got down to my own research, I did observe signi cant changes in the Moravian Church. This denomination, which had always been small in Europe, was so successful in its missionary work that in the 20th century by far the majority of all Moravians lived in what used to be known as the “mission elds.” I also realized that in certain parts of Tanzania the Moravian Church was the majority church, a typical folk church—different from Germany, where it had come from.
