Black and white photograph showing a scene at the opening of the Okwa church on the Methodist Missionary Society's Ndoro circuit in modern day Abia state. Crowds of women and children can be seen in front of the church. One child wears a particularly large hat. The church is a single-storey brick building with a corrugated iron roof. This photograph was pasted into one of a series of exercise book albums created by Emily Godfrey, Matron of the Ama Achara Methodist Hospital, run by the Methodist Missionary Society in southeast Nigeria.
