Worthy Missions
Last summer some 100 laymen and ministers, calling themselves the Modern Missions Movement, began to put into practice the theological and sociological ideas born of the Laymen's Foreign Missions Inquiry (TIME, June 25). Their aim was to help thoughtful donors in giving their money to missionary projects which approach the Inquiry's ideals. Available last week was M. M. M.'s first bulletin listing 39 worthy enterprises. Some of the 39:
The Galangue Mission Station in Angola, Portuguese West Africa; run by six U. S. Negroes under the auspices of the Congregational and Christian mission board.
The Fanchiachuang Experimental Rural Center in North China; an interdenominational enterprise for Chinese but "capable of reproduction by the average Christian group."
The School of Science, Union Middle School and Medical Work of famed Yale-in-China.
Work Among the Garos of Assam in India. Sixty years ago the British decided not to exterminate the head-hunting Garos, asked U. S. Baptists to tame and educate them.
Pyinmana Agricultural School in Burma. "A warm Christian spirit permeates all activities."
