520 |a This article reflects on the missionary journey of Yosefa Mhalamhala from Valdezia, South Africa in 1875 to Delagoa Bay in Mozambique. While we acknowledge the role and work done by the Swiss missionaries from Lesotho in 1872 to Valdezia in 1875, it is imperative to indicate and perhaps appreciate the foundation laid by Mhalamhala before the arrival of Paul Berthoud on the 9th of July 1887 in Mozambique. Being the first evangelist to be consecrated and sent as a missionary to Mozambique, he managed to accomplish the vision and aims of the Swiss missionaries beyond. What is intriguing is the way in which Swiss missionaries have ignored Mhalamhala's contributions through evangelisation in the area of Delagoa Bay (Maputo) and elsewhere in Mozambique. Could it be that they thought an African man who had no theological training could not have archived so much in a short space of time? This article will provide a historical perspective and the missionary work of Mhalamhala as it attempts to resuscitate his name and deeds for the Igreja Presbiteriana de Mozambique.
