Quotes
You feel that these neophytes are up against difficulties which beset them from all sides. There is the indifference of some Europeans who do not set a good example; there is the influence of their pagan relatives, perhaps dragging them back; there is hostility and attempts at perversion on the part of the sects. The pagan past appeals to them; the beauty of a thoroughly Christian society is as yet unknown to them. Yet, aided by the grace of God, they profess Jesus Christ openly before men. The Holy Ghost is given them to help and strengthen them in this struggle, which is changing the face of Africa, as Europe was changed.
