Bethel Mission, German East Africa
The Bethel Mission, also known as Berlin III, Evangelische Missionsgesellschaft für Deutsch-Ostafrika (EMDOA),[1] or Berliner Evangelische Missionsgesellschaft für Ostafrika[2] was a Berlin-based Protestant mission initiated by Karl Peters in German East Africa with a uniert religious doctrine.[1] From its founding in 1886[3] until 1891 the mission was limited to the Indian Ocean coast; it was then led by Friedrich von Bodelschwingh, Senior of the Bethel Institution.[1]
In October 1905 the society created Mkoma Mbuli (The Storyteller), a Shambala monthly, which probably continued publication until 1914.[4]
