Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from White Unto Harvest: A Survey of Lutheran United Mission, the China Mission of the Norwegian Lutheran Church of America In giving a short survey of the field, it may be in order to mention that the field, as we now have it, was acquired and occupied at different periods by the three former missions, now united into one body. The choosing of a mission field was necessarily one of the most important questions that the first arrivals of the American Norwegian China Mission and of the Hauge Synod Mission had to decide. At the start these two parties worked together and were considered one body, but later on separated into two missions. The pioneers sought the advice of older missionaries, and the late venerable Dr. Griffith John pointed out a field in northwestern Hupeh, on the Han River, with Fancheng as a starting point. Both missions decided on this field. The former Hauge Synod Mission began its work at Fancheng and made this city its headquarters. From Fancheng its missionaries extended their work westward to Taipingtien, Tsi-ho, and gradually occupied the greater part of the Kuohenghsien district. Later on they stationed foreign workers in Sinyeh and Tengchow, Honan, and also by means of native helpers, opened work in Tanghsien and in a number of market towns in the district. This gave the Hauge Synod Mission a field located partly in Honan and partly in Hupeh, about ninety miles in length and fifty miles in width.
