Herrnhut Mission

As an opus of the Herrnhut Bohemian Brethren, the mission began in 1732 under Earl Nikolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf. From the mission areas developed independent provinces of the brethren unity. In Switzerland, the Herrnhut communities (or societies) stand behind this opus together with a large circle of watchword speakers and other friends. The Herrnhut Mission holds relationships over mission 21, particularly with Tanzania but also with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Palestine and South Africa.
