As a missionary in the Sudan, amid unrest and war following Sudanese independence, Nikkel wrote these quasi-public letters—missionary epistles—to his friends and supporters back home in the USA. These letters present a vivid picture of daily struggle in an impoverished, war-torn, but lavishly beautiful country.

The Rev. Dr. Grant Lemarquand is Associate Professor of Biblical Studies and Mission at the Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry, Ambridge, PA. He as also served as a missionary in the Anglican Church of Kenya.

Marc Nikkel was a priest of the Episcopal Church who served for twenty years as a missionary in the Sudan. He died in 2000, after a long battle with cancer.
