In this po sition he traveled throughout Eu rope and is regarded as one of the well informed men in the United States on the European Church. He will speak with authority on his subject of the challenge of commu nism to Christianity. Twice Estonia was overrun by the Russians; once before being driven out by the Nazis and once j afterwards. He has a dramatic story , to tell of being a refugee. In January of this ye^r he was j called to serve the Estonian Luth-! eran Church in New York City, the j largest Estonian congregation in i North America.
