Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old English Catholic Missions Parochial afterwards were, by the Act 3 and 4 Vict. Cap. 92, specially passed for that purpose. Turning, however, more particularly to these Registers, a summary and short account of which is given in these pages, we notice first that of the seventy-eight deposited in 1840 at Somer set House, no less than seventy are from the Northern District, then under the jurisdiction of Bishop Briggs, and that of these, forty-five are from Yorkshire, twelve from Durham, ten from Northumberland, and one each from the counties of Cumberland, Westmoreland, and Lancashire. Here again, it is worthy of notice, that out of the nearly two hundred missions then existing in this diocese, of which about fifty-four were in Yorkshire, and nearly ninety in Lancashire, only one register, - that, viz., of St. Alban's, Blackburn - was parted with from the last-named county to the registrar-general. Catholic Lancashire, then, was very evidently loth to give up her Records of the past. Of the remaining eight registers, two in Hampshire and Hertfordshire are from the London District, five from the Midland, and one only is from the Western District, that, namely, of Lulworth Castle. We may therefore assume that in 1840 it was left to the option of each individual priest to forward his register, or not, according to his discretion, and that in 1857 it was decided that no more were to be sent at all.

Download or read book Conversations of a Catholic Missionary With Americans Classic Reprint written by John C. Perrodin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conversations of a Catholic Missionary With Americans Why a new book on religious questions? Because errors, if not new, assume new forms in different climes and ages. The substance of modern heresies is found in old times, as also the substance of our best arguments to vindicate truth; but whilst the devil shapes out old errors, in a thousand forms, to pervert immortal souls, we must not be outwitted by the spirit of lies, but expose and confute its wretched sophistry. Very little experience is required to be convinced that the best books written in the old world, are not exactly what is needed in the new. As skilful mechanics select tools and methods which are best adapted to their use on this side of the ocean, so have I selected, from different authors, what I think best calculated to remove American prejudices, and the best answers to popular objections. It is not without fear that I publish this little work, not indeed because I apprehend to have it criticised, but because I am convinced that a religious book, to be useful, must possess a high degree of perfection.

Download or read book Sermons and Lectures on the Missions Vol 1 written by Anton Huonder and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons and Lectures on the Missions, Vol. 1: A Collection of Sermons, Lectures, and Sketches on the Catholic Missions The following collection of mission sermons is but a modest attempt in this direction. The editor was prompted by a de sire to respond in some way to the many appeals for a litera ture of this kind, and by the hope that other more gifted clerical brethren might feel inclined to follow Up so honest an endeavor. The models contained in this Work are partly complete sermons, partly Sketches together with material, and partly mere outlines. The volume is intended to respond at once to as many as possible. The conditions of time and place, of locality and convenience, of the lecture hall, and of disposition and taste Of the preacher are so varied, that an attempt to sup ply only completely elaborated sermons would have to be brand ed a failure from the very outset. The advice to the reader must be: Examine the material offered, and choose the best with due consideration of your abilities as a speaker, of your audience, and of your aim and purpose.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Missions When I was a student in college, a venerated missionary of the American Boardfi distin guished alike for his wisdom and piety and successful service, visiting Amherst, and relating some results of his thirty years' observations on missionary ground, told us, among other things, that we, having always lived in a Christian land, could have little conception of the vices and the degradation of the heathen. Though I hardly understood the remark at the time, and never felt its force until my own recent observation gave me some opportunity of testing its truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Church Missions The Lecture is, to a large extent, a compilation from the Writings and accounts of others. It has been drawn from many sources - from what I have read, from what I have heard, and from what I have seen. Deeply interested in missionary work I have for years noted down whatever has seemed to me note Worthy and reliable, or to tend to the elucidation of the subject, Without intending to make any public use of it, and, at times, without quoting, my authority. I jotted down, from time to time, from the writings, or from the spoken addresses of the wise and good whatever approved itself to my mind and heart. The allegory, and to a considerable extent the language in which it is clothed, and the subject introduced have been taken from the works of the late Rev. Henry Newland.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Thousand Years of Missions It is said that Shakspere owed much of his broad mental vision to the accounts Of the world's explora tion made available in English by Richard Hakluyt and that Milton was still deeper in debt to the same work. A large outlook on God's world is the necessary basis Of lofty inspiration. But the Principal Navigations Of missionary enterprise have never been brought together in any one book or set of books. After pre paring the copious bibliography of missions for the London Conference in 1888, Dr. Jackson, Secretary of the American Society of Church History, said in the journal Of that society.

Download or read book A Concise History of Missions Classic Reprint written by Edwin Munsell Bliss and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise History of Missions The history of missions is the history of the extension of Christianity. It is thus a depart ment of general church history, and cannot be fully understood except as its relations to other departments are kept in mind. The progress of the Church has been by no means uniform. There have been periods of special missionary activity, others in which doctrinal statement, ecclesiastical organization, the consolidation and strengthening of church life, have absorbed attention. Each, however, has had its in uence on all the others, and the work as a whole has a unity which can only be realized as one takes a survey of the whole field. Such a survey it is the purpose of this book to give. There is no detailed statement of different epochs or of the various phases Of mission work. The aim is rather to indicate the general char acter of the epochs, show the mutual relation and in uence of the phases, and thus make it some what easier to place correctly the details as we come across them elsewhere. To use the phrase of one who has himself done much to help in the general knowledge of missions, Mr. John R. Mott, it lays the rails that connect the remoter sections and make passage from one to another possible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Decisive Hour of Christian Missions The World Missionary Conference held in Edinburgh in June of the present year constituted in its plan, in its personnel, in the Spirit which characterized it, and in its promise, the most Significant gathering ever held in the interest of the world's evangelization. In preparation for the Conference eight representative international Commissions had been at work for over eighteen months making a scientific investigation and study of some of the most pressing and vital problems Of Christian missions. Associated With these Commis Sions as correspondents were the principal missionaries and leaders of the Church on the mission fields, as well as many of the foremost thinkers and workers of the missionary forces at home. The reports re sulting from these special investigations have afforded a very comprehensive presentation of the Tacts about the main aspects of the missionary situation. Those who have had opportunity to examine the mass of evidence gathered by the Commissions and to listen to the discussions of the reports at the Edinburgh Con ference must have been impressed with the fact that the present is the decisive hour of Christian missions. In the history Of Christianity there has never been such'a remarkable conjunction of Opportunities and crises on all the principal mission fields and of favor ing circumstances and possibilities on the home field.

Download or read book The Story of Church Missions Classic Reprint written by Eugene Stock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Church Missions This little book is intended as a kind of sequel to my "Story of the Bible," and is written primarily for the same class of young readers. But as the knowledge of Missions among Church people - "children of larger growth" - is much less than their knowledge of the Bible and its sources and versions, the following chapters may perhaps be accepted also by them as an elementary and introductory account of what the Anglican Churches are doing abroad, both for their own scattered members and for the evangelization of the non-Christian world. The book professes to be no more than the briefest summary, in simple language, of the Missions of the Church of England and its sister and daughter Churches. Other Missions, Protestant, Roman, and Russo-Greek, are not ignored; they are alluded to as occasion requires, but there is no attempt to describe them.
