Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the roots and history of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society's presence across Ceylon, India, and China. Beginning with early Portuguese and Dutch influences, the text explores the arrival of the British, the efforts of Dr. Coke, and the founding of the Galle Conference. It charts the appointments of the various stations, the successes and challenges faced by the missionaries, and the development of education and the ministry in each region. The volume delves into the caste system and its impact in diverse settings, shedding light on the social and religious dynamics encountered by the missionaries. It highlights the contributions of key figures like Percival, Stott, Goudie, and Kilner, and discusses the challenges they faced in balancing education and evangelism in their approach. The book provides a fascinating account of the Methodist Missions in the East, examining the diverse historical, social, and religious contexts they operated within, and ultimately underscores the enduring legacy of their work in shaping the Christian communities in these regions.
