The Story Of The Fuh-Kien Mission Of The Church Missionary Society is a historical account of the Church Missionary Society's mission in Fuh-Kien, China. The book, written by Eugene Stock and originally published in 1890, provides a detailed description of the society's efforts to spread Christianity in the region, including the challenges and successes encountered along the way.The book begins with an overview of the history of the Fuh-Kien province and its people, followed by the arrival of the Church Missionary Society in the mid-19th century. The author then goes on to describe the various methods used by the missionaries to evangelize and establish churches in the area, including the translation of the Bible into the local dialect, the establishment of schools and hospitals, and the use of medical missions to gain trust and support from the local population.Throughout the book, Stock also provides insights into the cultural and political climate of the time, including the Opium Wars, the Taiping Rebellion, and the Boxer Rebellion. He also discusses the challenges faced by the missionaries, including language barriers, persecution, and the difficulty of gaining acceptance from the Chinese people.Overall, The Story Of The Fuh-Kien Mission Of The Church Missionary Society provides a valuable historical perspective on the efforts of Christian missionaries in China during the late 19th century, and sheds light on the complex relationship between Western religion and Chinese culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
