Problem of Church in Home Mission Work at West
A Mountain sermon by Dr A P Morrison urges Westward church expansion to serve diverse foreign-born populations. He cites 220 million spent on home missions since 1814, notes immigration as a central challenge, and stresses funding for 5000 western congregations without houses of worship. He highlights railroads, reservoirs, and westward settlement as context for church growth and Americanization through faith.
