Description: Postcard of a group of missionaries to India, Congo, and China with the Örebro Mission of Sweden; circa 1915. Back row (l-r): Ruth Mårtenson, India; Karl Ekroth, Congo; and Emma Svensson, Congo. Middle row (l-r): Ejnar Karlson, Congo; Em. Linqvister, Congo; Frida Blomqvist, Congo; Elna Gustafsson, China; and Rickh. Eriksson, China. Front row (l-r): Ester Johanson, Cong; Helma Bergström, Congo; Nanny Aronsson, China; and Gerda Hellström, China.
The Örebro Mission (a Baptist organization) was founded by John Ongman in 1892. When the Pentecostal movement began in Sweden in 1907, Ongman accepted Pentecostal gifts but remained independent of the Filadelfia Church (Stockholm) and the other organized Pentecostal churches.
The picture was probably taken in 1915 because all pictured missionaries attended the Örebro Mission School in 1915.
