Fait partie de Irish Capuchin Archives
The series contains the correspondence of Irish Capuchin missionary friars chronicling their work in both South Africa and in Northern Rhodesia (later Zambia). Much of the correspondence is with Provincial Ministers, Provincial Secretaries and Mission Secretaries and includes letters from overseas’ superiors regarding personnel and administrative matters, health care and education projects, evangelization and ministry, and financial matters. Many of the early letters provide personal accounts of the missionary’s activities with details of their work in the field.
