- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-31559 NEW METHODIST BISHOPS IN AFRICA NEW YORK -- For the first time in the 131-year history of Methodist work in Africa, two Africans have been elected bishops. They were among four chosen by the quadrennial Methodist Africa Central Conference. The bishops are: top, Bishop Ralph E. Dodge, an American, who was re-elected and assigned to Southern Rhodesia (left); and Bishop John Wesley Shungu, financial officer and legal representative of the Central Congo Methodist Conference, assigned to the Congo. Bottom: Bishop Harry P. Andreassen, a Norwegian missionary from Trondheim, assigned to Angola, where he has served since 1952 (left); and Bishop Escrivao Zunguze, pastor of the Methodist church at Cambini, Mozambique, assigned to Mozambique and South Africa. Bishop Dodge, an outspoken foe of racial discrimination, formerly headed work in South Africa, Angola and Mozambique, besides Southern Rhodesia. In July he was expelled from Southern Rhodesia on grounds that he was an "undesirable immigrant," and has been staying in Kitwe, Northern Rhodesia.
