ABSTRACT

Archives mattered to Joe Church. On 30 January 1973, ‘settled in my study’ at Little Shelford, he made a recording on cassette for Patricia St. John to assist her in writing her biography of Ken Moynagh. 2 He begins by speaking of how thankful he was that he was able to get all his papers out of Uganda.

Things could have been lost in the Makerere Library and I am sure I was guided to bring them here. This often happens in history when persecution comes … and I somehow felt that God had told me to bring these precious manuscripts of the moving of His Spirit in East Africa, to bring them here to the peace and quiet of Little Shelford … The modern Acts of the Apostles in East Africa.
