The Social Work Of Christian Missions PDF Download

Excerpt from The Social Work of Christian Missions This volume is designed for those who are interested in the humanitarian phases of Christian missions. The paramount interests of our time are social. Foreign missions furnish an inexhaustible opportunity for social endeavor, and contribute annals in social progress such as are being written in no other field of human endeavor. It is the hope of the author that this volume may be a source of information and inspiration to those who have been aroused by present-day missionary movements among laymen, women, students, and the young people of the Churches. It is especially designed as a help to mission classes in schools and churches. For those classes that desire a short series of studies the introduction, the six chapters, and a review will furnish a division of material; for those who wish a series of lessons extending over a longer period, one or more sections can be used for each assignment. The sources for the work are enumerated in a bibliography at the end of the volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
