Description	Annotation translation: "This church was dedicated on 16th March 1930. Till then the congregation had met in the schoolroom, and people had to crowd together to get in. So everyone was happy and thankful, that this little church could be built and dedicated.

März 1930 eingeweiht. Bis dahin versammelte sich die Gemeinde Mengkatip im Schulsaal. Sehr eng ging es da oft her. So freute sich jedermann und war von Herzen dankbar, als dieses Kirchlein gebaut und eingeweiht werden konnte. Es soll mit seinem Kreuz oben auf der Turmspitze allen, die den Barito hinauf- und hinunterfahren, verkünden: Nur im Kreuz haben wir Sieg." - [Auf der Rückseite folgt der Pslam 105,1 und die Verdankung von Spenden, unterschrieben mit: 'Missionar'.]
