Description
Excerpt from The Foreign Missionary: An Incarnation of a World Movement
Europe and America gave last year for their mainte nance, and that of the churches, schools, hospitals, printing presses and other work under their care, The stations and out-stations occupied aggregate The num ber of definitely known adult converts and adherents is already and it is rapidly increasing. An enterprise so vast in itself, representing such a great constituency of intelligent people in Europe and America and recognized by the govern ments of the world as a force of the first magnitude, challenges the attention of all thoughtful persons.
The missionary who incarnates this enterprise is therefore a man to be reckoned with in dealing with the phenomena of our age. It is he of whom we instinctively think when the subject is mentioned, he who does the actual missionary work, whose support is the largest single item of missionary expenditure, whose wisdom or folly is the chief human factor in the success or failure Zof the missionary movement and whose character and methods are the objects of the sharpest criticism.
