============================================================

     Father Art Wille deserves a special place in
Tanzanian annals as one of the original Maryknoll Buffaloes, a term of praise
for hardened, persevering missionaries. When Zanaki Parish in Musoma Diocese
celebrated its 25th Anniversary in 1981 a very important guest was President
Julius K. Nyerere who flew from Dar es Salaam for the occasion. When the local
people made a fuss over him Nyerere said: "Today the real Guest of Honor is not
me, but the founder of this Zanaki Parish, Father Art Wille."
