Overview

"The American Missionary — Volume 35, No. 9, September, 1881" is a historical publication, likely a journal or periodical, written in the late 19th century. This volume is produced by Various authors associated with the American Missionary Association and focuses on the missionary work concerning African Americans, Chinese individuals, and other minority groups during the Reconstruction era following the Civil War. The contents suggest an emphasis on the role of the church in missions and educational efforts aimed at improving the lives of these communities. At the start of this volume, key themes include the association’s annual meeting updates and financial appeals, illustrating the ongoing work related to establishing churches and schools among freedmen in the South. There are reports on the successes and challenges faced, ranging from the establishment of new congregations to the moral and educational shortcomings that need attention. The opening section paints a picture of progressive efforts in moral reformation and highlights the importance of a strong church as foundational support in overcoming the lingering effects of slavery while fostering hope and community development in the new social landscape.
