A Catholic missionary father stands with a number of white-clad young men and boys. They stand in rows before a small shrub. In the background, a wooden building can be seen. The back of the postcard has no handwriting on it. Printed in the correspondence section is "Missien des Peres Redemptoristes au Congo Prefecture Apostolique de Matadi." "Thysville Kimpese - Merci aux bienfaiteurs." "Kongo-missie der Paters redemptoristen Apostolische Prefektuur van Matadi." "Thysstad Kimpese - Dank aan de weldoeners."
