Sketches Of The Missions Of Th PDF Download

Excerpt from Sketches of the Missions: Of the American Board And yet the missionary spirit of the past fifty years is not a new thing in these churches. The same zeal once burned bright in the hearts of our fathers, the old Puri tan colonists; and we have but experienced a revival. The heart of the fathers has been turned to the children, and of the children to the fathers. The first settlers of New England were the first Englishmen who devised and executed a mission to the heathen. Honored be their memory! Wve come of a missionary stock. No man can rightly apprehend the new dispensation of mis sions without some knowledge of the old; for the holy zeal of Mills and of J adson stands interlocked with the labors of Brainerd and of Eliot.
