New Trade Journal

Under the auspices of the Theological Education Fund of the International Missionary Council, a Consultation on Theological Education in the Pacific was held in Suva, Fiji, in May, 1961.

One of the results of this is the “Pacific Journal of Theology”, the first issue of which emerged at the end of the year.

It is a modest little production, and quarterly publication is the aim. As it is, in effect, the trade journal of churchmen in the Pacific it can have little appeal to the general reader and, in fact, the only article in the first number that at all gets away from “trade” matters, is one on the Dead Sea Scrolls from a Dutch missionary in West New Guinea.

The journal is published in Western Samoa where the editor (J. Bradshaw), and circulation manager (C. Norwood), are stationed, but it has an im pressive editorial committee drawn from all the other South Pacific Islands.

Subscription is a 5/- minimum in Samoan currency (6/3 in Aus tralian), but those who can afford it can make voluntary additions.

The address is PO Box 184, Apia, Western Samoa.
