He worked between 1911 and 1914 in Togo. After the death of Verstraelen, the Vatican wanted to nominate Leven, but the colonial govern-ment asked that he should accept Dutch citizenship, before being formally nominated and ordained: the administration accepted German missionaries in Protestant and Catholic missions, but in this period preferred Dutch citizens as their leaders. Henricus Leven was considered somewhat rigid and bureau-cratic after his lively and dynamic predecessors and sometimes even labelled as 'Prussian; a term, which implied impersonal dedication and discipline. He guided the mission through the period of economic decline in the 1930s. In the field of marriage where Flores customs were so different from the basic Catholic rules, while many newly baptised were not prepared to follow the formal rules of their new religion he formulated a strategy at the 1935 Ndona synod of recognizing customary marriages as legal. This gave room for a development of the church without the danger of frequent excommunications and estrangement.<Ref>https://books.google.co.id/books?id=cUoGJSs9yOUC&pg=PA246&lpg=PA246&dq=Arnold+Verstraelen+leven&source=bl&ots=vEtRosq6-b&sig=_OVKoqWL1VjgIJIVfzvpWTiYx6A&hl=id&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjiwsDG-bjOAhVEuI8KHdBxBbUQ6AEIRjAI#v=onepage&q=Arnold%20Verstraelen%20leven&f=false</ref>-->
