Book Description

Excerpt from The Missionary Manual: A Handbook of Methods for Missionary Work in Young People's Societies in Young Work in Young No set of workers in our young people's societies is so eager for work to do, or so enthusiastic in doing the work, as our missionary committees. These energetic laborers have long needed a full and systematic manual of directions and suggestions, such as this book aims to be. A few volumes have taken up this task in part and with admirable success, but none with the completeness of detail or anything like the fullness that I have attempted. Those that use this book will find it practical. Indeed, at least half of the plans here set forth have been tried and proved by large numbers of societies all over the world. At the same time, however, recognizing the value of novelty in this work as in most work, I have made up the volume to a very large extent - probably half - of original plans which have not before been published. I trust that these new methods will be found as useful as the old have been, and that they will give fresh life to thousands of missionary meetings. The book has been written with the one purpose of promoting the growth of the Kingdom, of God. May our Saviour use it to that end.
