- "This book is a theological reflection on the lives of women in Niassa province, Northern Mozambique, with whom I had the privilege of living and working from 1991 to 1997 with the Anglican Diocese of Niassa, following four years in central and southern Mozambique and on the Mozambique/Zimbabwe border. In our work in community development through 'Kuchijinji', the Anglican Rural Development Centre, and then within the Diocesan Structures as Diocesan Secretary and consultant to the Mother's Union, I was well-placed to appreciate, and learn about, life for the congregations of that diocese. This book is my reflection on my experience as a Christian missionary seeking to understand another culture, another world-view and another way of being. .... I intend to concentrate attention on the Nyanja women, a matrilineal group who make up the majority of the Anglican churches' congregations, especially in that stronghold of the Anglican Church, the Lakeshore. It is along the eastern litoral of Lake Niassa (Lake Malawi) that the first Anglican missionaries, of the Anglo-Catholic Universities' Mission to Central Africa (UMCA), focused their attention, centering on the impressive Cathedral of Likoma Island, and reaching out along the shoreline from Messumba mission". -- Intro.

- "The Centenary of the Mission is a time when its written history should be brought up to date. But an attempt to cover one hundred years in the space of a single volume could hardly have produced a satisfactory result. So much has happened that the need for compression would have necessitated the omission of much which is of undying interest. What was needed therefore was a series of volumes, of which the number would increase with the passage of time, each covering a section of the story. The thrill and glamour of the first fifty years were contained in the Anderson-Morshead History, published in a revised edition at the time of the Mission's Jubilee, This has now been reprinted almost as it stood, with the omission of certain appendices, as Volume One of the History of the U.M.C.A." -- Preface to the Edition of 1957.

- "It is significant that the growth of the work of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa that it should require two volumes to tell the story of the second fifty years of its history where one sufficed for the first half-century: and even so the narrative has had to be greatly curtailed. To keep the story vivid, I have tried as far as possible to use the missionaries' own words even where exact quotation is not made, and to avoid confusion I have made small alterations in quotations to bring them into line with current usage in spelling and nomenclature". -- Preface.

- "The background of this book is South Africa. The point of view is Anglican. The book came into being because I was asked by the Provincial Board of Missionary Strategy to write something on methods of mission, 'describing the work of the laity in evangelization, and showing the Church active in the world'. For this reason it deals with the life and needs of the Church of the Province of South Africa, but it hope it may be of interest to Christians who do not share its particular background or its particular point of view, for the Christian mission concerns us all". -- Intro.

- "This study book is bound to awake the greatest interest because it deals with an exciting subject, and is written by those who know the subject at first hand. .... Among the forces from other countries which are active in Africa today are the influences of communism, of Christian missions, and of Islam. To which of these will Africans turn ? For the development of Africa will continue to depend upon fellowship with the rest of the world. No country can live to itself. .... One of the most important forces in Africa is, of course, the Christian Church, and our Churches in our own country are able to co-operate with Africans through our missionary interest in the Church. You will find here, the record of evangelism and pastoral care, the work of education in Christian schools, and the work of healing in Christian hospitals; a work which we are bound to reinforce with our prayer and our understanding and our assistance. I believe that the leadership is there in Africa; I have been deeply impressed by the splendid African bishops whom I have met at various conferences, but they still need our co-operation". -- Foreword.
