Description
Louisville, KY: Dispatch Printing Company, 1905. Very good. 8¼" x 5½". Stapled wrappers. Pp. 28. Very good: two tiny puncture holes from being held with other pamphlets; wrappers lightly worn and moderately dust soiled; faint vertical crease. The National Baptist Convention (NBC) was formally organized in 1895. It brought together the Baptist Foreign Mission Convention (founded 1880), the National Baptist Convention of America (1886) and the National Baptist Education Convention (1893). According to its website, it is presently the largest Black Baptist convention. This is the 1905 annual report of the NBC's Foreign Mission Board (FMB). The book has a discussion of the FMB's struggles in South Africa and several other dispatches from missionaries including a more positive report from Liberia. It has a breakdown of financial contributions by state as well as an accounting of how those funds were used. The book is also illustrated with five photographic images and two charts including group shots of missionaries and parishioners in Barbados and their mission house in Chiradzulu. While not marked as such, this copy was owned by the Rev. F.B. North who was pastor of the St. John church in Austin and a trustee of the St. John Regular Missionary Baptist Association of Texas' missionary department. OCLC locates eight institutions with annual reports for the NBC's Foreign Mission Board but no copies of this particular year.
