Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents an analytical framework for exploring the history and methods of missionary work in the context of a specific diocese in Ceylon, now Sri Lanka. The framework focuses on three areas: the conversion of individuals, the pastoral care and development of congregations, and the organization and unification of the diocese. The author offers insights into the challenges and successes of missionary work, including the evangelistic activities of itinerant preachers, the establishment of schools and churches, and the training of native clergy. The book explores the complexities of religious conversion in a Buddhist-majority society and the importance of cultural sensitivity in missionary approaches. Through an in-depth examination of the diocese's history, the author reveals the interplay between the indigenous population, European colonizers, and the Anglican Church's efforts to establish a lasting presence in the region. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
