Description
Portrait of young Chinese boy.
Part of an incomplete set of prints from a lecture by Harold Rattenbury entitled, "China: A Personal Record." The script for this lecture is also held in SOAS archives, number 154. The preface reads, Most of our China material was prepared before the Communist Revolution. We continue to use it
it shews how Christ has built His Church in China, and how as a result of Missionary endeavour - a living Church is there now to continue its witness. May its use lead all who come to renewed prayer for Christians in China at this time.
