Pioneers; Africa

Pioneers of Africa is inspiring and unique. Thousands of Africans were converted to the gospel, then waited up to twenty years before they could be baptized following the revelation on the priesthood in 1978. Their story is told by some of the pioneers, by President Gordon B. Hinckley and many other General Authorities, and by Professor E. Dale LeBaron who has collected over 700 oral histories from African pioneers. This is tuly a unique and inspiring chapter in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Based on the work of Dr. E. Dale LeBaron.
