North Fukien Mission 1920-1951)
No full textThe North Fukien (today’s Fujian) Mission, 闽北区会 grew out of the subdivision of the original Fukien (or Fujian) Mission, 1917 through 1920. The rationale for the division was said to be “the difficulty of administration;” that is, the distance, terrain, and poor communication facilities presented hardships for the mission director living in the south of Fujian Province. In addition, the dialect spoken in Foozhow 福州is different from that in South Fujian around Xiamen. The Foochow (or Fuzhou) Mission was therefore formed in 1920, the entity changing its name to the North Fukien Mission in 1922. It formed part of the South China Union Mission, and its headquarters always remained at Foochow.https://research.avondale.edu.au/esda/1591/thumbnail.jp
