Description

A file containing letters to and from Mr and Mrs Sarah Oehring, 1928-1929. For example:

A letter from Mrs Sarah Oehring to Pastor and Mrs Shields, which notes, 'amongst all classes, men, women and children, there continues a real interest, for those who know something of S. America will know it is the women folk who keep up the R. church but we are glad to tell you we have at some of the meetings as many as ten women; most of these were regular attenders before we departed for the homeland so it has taken much time, prayer and work since our return to get them back', 9 January 1929.
