Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the Foreign Missions: Of the Secession and United Presbyterian Church The object of the present narrative is to place on record the praiseworthy exertions that have been made by the United Presbyterian Church, both in its separate and in its united state, to spread the knowledge of the gospel in foreign lands. In preparing the narrative, the author has drawn his materials chiefly from the letters of the missionaries, and from the published authentic documents of the church whose missions are here recorded. In gleaning the details necessary for the later portions of the work, he has availed himself freely of the communications contained in the Missionary Record of the United Presbyterian Church, so ably conducted by its respected foreign secretary, the Rev. Dr. Somerville. The materials are copious and diversified; and when arranged in the form of a continuous narrative, they furnish a record, the perusal of which will prove both pleasing and instructive. In giving an account of each mission, the author has followed the order in which the missions were commenced. The first in order is that which was undertaken to the North American Provinces, more than a century ago; and the last is that which has been recently commenced in China. During the years that have elapsed between these two periods, numerous missionaries have gone forth from the various sections that now compose the United Presbyterian Church; and the page which records the labours of these good men in different parts of the, globe, must be regarded as constituting an interesting portion of the history of the church.
