THE WORK OF THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION AND FOREIGN MISSIONS. - BY REV. FRANK B. JENKINS.

Description

This late‑19th‑century missionary journal offers a vivid snapshot of a national faith‑based organization at a pivotal moment. The opening pages list the association’s leadership, from presidents and vice‑presidents to regional secretaries, showing the breadth of its network across major American cities. Readers get a clear sense of the administrative rigor that underpinned its charitable work.

The publication also serves as a practical guide for supporters, detailing how to send donations, manage subscriptions, and even include bequests in wills. It explains the upcoming annual meeting in Chicago, inviting clergy and laypeople alike to join a gathering that promises inspiring sermons and lively fellowship. Information about travel discounts, hotel rates, and other logistics reflects the era’s growing emphasis on organized, nationwide outreach.

Beyond logistics, the journal shares a reflective piece on “methods,” urging readers to emulate Christ’s approach in spreading truth. By weaving together organizational updates with spiritual encouragement, the issue captures both the operational heart and the moral vigor of the movement during a time of expansion and hopeful ambition.
