The American Missionary — Volume 41, No. 5, May, 1887 by Various
"The American Missionary — Volume 41, No. 5, May, 1887" by Various is a historical publication that likely reflects the social and cultural landscape of the late 19th century. This volume serves as a platform for the American Missionary Association, detailing not only the financial standings and immediate needs of missionary efforts across various regions in the United States but also showcasing narratives from mission workers and reports on the educational andreligious advancements in marginalized communities, particularly African Americans and Indigenous peoples. At the start of this edition, the editorial discusses the critical financial circumstances faced by the American Missionary Association and the urgent need for donations to support their expanding mission work, which includes churches and schools that are evidently overwhelmed by demand. It emphasizes the vital and vibrant activities occurring in the South, the struggles for the Indian territories, and the establishment of new initiatives in the Chinese community. Through moving accounts of individuals like Aunt July, an elderly former enslaved woman grateful for the care and support she receives, the opening offers a glimpse into the personal connections and spiritual upliftment that field workers are fostering amid hardships. The sentiment of community support and the narrative of persistent hope resonate throughout the opening, making it evident that the work being chronicled is both challenging and immensely rewarding.
