| Summary |
"The American Missionary — Volume 42, No. 02, February, 1888" by Various is a monthly publication produced in the late 19th century, specifically during a period of significant social reform and missionary activity in the United States. As a periodical, it aims to inform its readers about the American Missionary Association's work, particularly in the southern states and among Native American groups, focusing on educational and missionary efforts to support marginalized communities. At the start of this edition, the publication mourns the loss of Rev. James Powell, an influential figure within the American Missionary Association, whose dedication to education and leadership in the mission field is celebrated through a heartfelt tribute. In addition to this memorial, the opening section outlines the current state of the missionary work, emphasizing the need for continued support and dedication from members of the community as they strive to uplift those affected by the legacy of slavery. Alongside these editorial reflections, the opening portion sets the tone for the challenges and successes faced by the Association, including significant themes of faith, commitment to service, and collective social responsibility in the face of adversity, illustrated through mission updates and personal stories from workers actively engaged in the field.
