Recent Contacts with African Churches seeking
instruction, fellowship
Numerous contacts have recently been made with
individuals and groups in various African countries. Missionary
Koenig has met with these contacts personally, and the CLC is
providing them with Bibles, catechisms, and other confessional
materials. A trip is being planned for January of 2002, for CLC
representatives to accompany Missionary Koenig for a face-to-face
visit with the leaders of these churches.
