Image description

Nestled in the serene valley of Genadendal, or 'The Vale of Grace,' lies a thriving Hottentot village, established by Moravian missionaries with notable success. This settlement, boasting 2837 inhabitants, showcases an amalgamation of spirituality and civilization. While attending to the spiritual needs of the people, the missionaries have not overlooked their temporal welfare, fostering Christianity alongside practical skills and education. The village exudes peace and order, with inhabitants sustaining themselves through agriculture and craftsmanship. Genadendal's tranquility is particularly palpable during Easter, as voices unite in the burial ground, singing hymns of resurrection under the golden rays, epitomizing hope and renewal.
