Buch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'That They May Be One' offers a comprehensive and insightful introduction to the vital work of the Board of Home Missions within the United Church of Canada during its formative years. Written shortly after the 1925 union of the Methodist, Presbyterian, and Congregational churches, this work serves as both a historical record and a study guide for the church's extensive missionary efforts across the vast Canadian landscape.The book details the strategic initiatives designed to foster spiritual unity and provide social support to diverse communities, from burgeoning urban centers to isolated frontier outposts. Mrs. F. C. Stephenson explores the challenges and triumphs of home missions, emphasizing the church's commitment to national service and the social gospel. Through a series of thematic chapters, the work provides a deep understanding of the administrative and spiritual framework that guided the Board's efforts to provide educational, medical, and pastoral care to new immigrants, indigenous peoples, and rural settlers.This volume is an essential resource for those interested in Canadian religious history, the sociology of the early 20th-century church, and the ecumenical movement that defined the United Church of Canada.
