Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Torchbearers on the King's Highway
We are going to think about some good and brave men who have gone out from their homes as missionaries. These men have had many interesting and exciting adventures, and some day I hope you will want to learn more about them than there is time for in these Stories. But before we begin to learn about them, let us think for a moment what is meant by the words missionary and missions. You know how God sent His Son into the world, to teach people Of their Heavenly Father's love. SO we may think about the Lord Jesus as the First Missionary, because the words means someone who is sent. We know that He spent His life in doing good, and in teaching people how to Show their love for God by helping each other, or, as our catechism puts it, Their duty toward God, and their duty toward their neighbor.'
