Abstract
This letter is one of several from Bishop Daniel of Winchester in England to Saint Boniface, missionary to the southern Germanic tribes. It is an exemplar piece of the Anglo-Saxon mission and serves to underscore the right approach to evangelization. In doing so, it sets the stage for future Christian missionary work among the Slavs and Scandinavian peoples.
