Abstract:
Color illustration of a white nurse, wearing a nun's white habit, bandaging a small African boy's ankle. An African woman holding a baby is kneeling next to them, looking on. Behind them is another group of women: a white nurse is standing and talking to a young African woman holding a baby while another woman watches them. Facing the illustration is a blank page with "Boas festas, Ano feliz" written on top and "Portugal missionario" on the bottom. On the other side of the illustrated page is a drawing of two angels holding a coat of arms with a small cross on top of it in front of a huge white cross rising from a cloud, with words "Oito seculos de cristianismo" written underneath.
