This video recounts the history of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania. I produced it back in 1992 in the Swahili language with the help of Lutheran Missionary Howard Olsen.

The roots of organized Lutheranism in the nation now known as Tanzania had their origin in the late 19th century. The work began in 1887 in the capitol city of Dar es Salaam with the Bethel Mission Society and subsequently spread to Usambara in 1892 and then Bukoba in 1910. This video documents the growth of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania from its missionary beginings up to the 1960’s.
