EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a group of women from the Chilonda and Bie regions of Angola, Africa, setting off to attend Gospel Meetings in the rural villages. Dressed in their Sunday best, the women sit in the back of a van, a common mode of transportation during the 1930s in Angola. The van, which could also be a pickup truck or a large van, is filled with passengers, all eager to hear the word of God and share their faith with their fellow villagers. The Gospel Meetings were an integral part of the Christian missionary efforts in Angola during the early 20th century. Missionaries traveled from village to village, spreading the message of Christianity and providing education and healthcare to the local population. The women in this photograph are likely part of a larger group of believers who have gathered to hear the teachings of the missionaries and strengthen their faith. The scene is reminiscent of a communal journey, with the women united in their purpose and their shared experience of travel. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history and culture of Angola during the 1930s. It also serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith and the importance of community in shaping the lives of people around the world.
