The Moravian Missionary Spirit

MORAVIAN children are trained from infancy in the belief that their church exists for the purpose of giving the gospel to a lost world, and that every disciple must do his part, however humble. Note the result: they give one member out of every ninety-two to foreign missions; while we—the rest of Protestant Christendom—give one out of every five thousand. They send five missionaries abroad to every minister at home, while we send out one missionary to every seventy-seven ministers. We play at missions; they make it the dominant purpose of their lives.—Missionary Intelligencer.
