Description
Summary:Any report on this church's experiences has to acknowledge the paucity of sources. Very often only individual items survive, making any general picture incomplete and impossible to compare with other sources. The fate of this church hinged on the attitudes of the Polish authorities, the Masurian activists and the church leaders. Particularly difficult was the organization of the various church agencies in Masuria, and the changing relationships with the Methodists, and particularly with the United Church. The so-called Polish Masurians attempted to maintain the United Church in their region after 1945. But the leaders of the Evangelical-Augsburg Church in Warsaw resolved to take this branch over, and accordingly took steps to do so.
