Administrative Information Provenance: Originally part of the independent Missionary Research Library, under the direction of Charles H. Fahs, who was research

assistant to John R. Mott and curator of the Missionary Research Library from its foundation in 1914 until 1948, these records were

moved with the MRL to the Brown Memorial Tower of Union Theological Seminary in 1929. In 1976 the records were accessioned to the Burke Library archives with the closure of the MRL.

Access restrictions: The collection is unrestricted to readers. Certain materials however are in a fragile condition, and this may necessitate restriction in handling and copying.

Preferred Citation: Item description, MRL 12: World Missionary Conference, 1910, series number, box number, and folder number, The Burke Library Archives at Union Theological Seminary, New York. Organizational History The World Missionary Conference, held at Edinburgh in 1910, was preceded by five interdenominational conferences convened by societies for foreign missions in both Great Britain and the United States. The first conference held in 1888 in London, England was the first attempt to study and distribute information regarding missionary work throughout the world. This was followed in 1900 by a larger, “ecumenical,” meeting of delegates sent from societies for foreign missions based in the United States, Canada, Great Britain and Europe, intending to represent the work of Protestant missionaries in the whole of the inhabited world. This gathering took place in New York City at Carnegie Hall, with over 50,000 attending. Many of those involved in the successful 1900 conference resolved that there should be another conference held in ten years on the other side of the Atlantic. On 29 January, 1907, 37 delegates from twenty Scottish foreign missions committees or boards, unanimously agreed at a meeting held in Glasgow that a Missionary Conference should be held in Edinburgh in June of 1910. This Conference would be structured largely on the model of the 1900 New York conference, being composed of delegates from foreign missions societies actively supporting missionaries in the field and spending no less than £2000 on their foreign work annually. Each society was entitled to send another delegate for every additional £4000 spent. With the constitution of the Conference decided, three points regarding the subject matter to be addressed during the Conference were agreed upon: The Conference would only deal with missionary work among non-Christian peoples; it would only address the most urgent and immediate problems facing the Church; no opinion on ecclesiastical or doctrinal questions would be expressed by the Conference. The Conference began to differ from previous gatherings in the truly international scope of its objectives. An international Committee of eighteen members was appointed from the United States, Great Britain and Canada, in order to frame the program and to

oversee the arrangements for carrying it out. The first meeting at Oxford of this international committee decided: the choice of subjects on which the Conference would concentrate; the resolution to prepare and present these subjects through careful inquiry and study by appointed commissions; the selection of men and women to act on these commissions; the appointment of J.H. Oldham as the full-time Secretary for the preparation of the Conference. The meeting at Oxford established the overall structure and method of gathering, interpreting and presenting the information to the Conference. The subject themes were arranged according to eight Commissions (for details, see below). The sessions of the World Missionary Conference were held from June 14-23, 1910 in Edinburgh, Scotland, with Dr. John R. Mott as Chairman. On Tuesday, 21 June, Commission VIII put a proposal before the Conference for the formation of a Continuation Committee to oversee the work begun by the Conference in the following years. The proposal received unanimous approval. The work of the Continuation Committees continued from 1911 onward. The bulk of the Burke Library’s records from these Committees date from 1911 to 1918. Geographically, the Continuation Committee and its sectional conferences took place worldwide, but there was a significant concentration of efforts on China, East Asia and India. The areas of concern to these conferences seemed primarily to be within Christian education and literature. The preparation for the centenary of Edinburgh 1910 is currently underway. The 2010 conference is to be modeled after the eight-commission structure of the 1910 World Missionary Conference in order to conduct a thorough historical examination of Christian mission over the last 100 years, and also to examine the current and future situation of a truly global Christianity.
