The Early Years of the French Canadian Missionary Society, 1839-1850
|
| Abstract |
The French Canadian Missionary Society (FCMS) represents one of the most extensive Protestant efforts ever made to evangelize the French-speaking inhabitants of North America. It was an interdenominational organization founded in 1839 by leading evangelical clergy and laypersons of Anglo-Montreal. For the next forty-two years, until 1881, the Society pursued its objective of evangelizing the Roman Catholics of French Canada through a three-fold strategy of colportage, evangelistic preaching, and education. At the peak of its work, the Society boasted numerous churches, preaching stations, schools and workers.
