Description From Source	Manuscript and Microform (1 microfilm reel; 35 mm.) The first 24 volumes of a German-language periodical published by the Gossner Mission, Berlin. The mission was founded by Johannes Gossner, an evangelical of no denomination, whose aim was simply to spread the Gospel. In practice, this usually meant that his missionaries became attached to other organisations. The Gossner Mission sent out 23 missionaries to Australia, five to the Chatham Islands, four to Polynesia, and five to Dutch New Guinea. After Gossner missionaries themselves reached the Pacific, the magazine began to publish much first-hand material.
