Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Canada's Share in World Tasks
The Forward Movement marked a new era in Can adian 'church life. For the first time the Anglican, Baptist, Congregational, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches came together as Churches, and With a united front, from coast to coast, faced their people with an appeal based upon existing need rather than upon previous giving. The magnificent response revealed the readiness of the people to do large things for the Kingdom of God.
Canada's Share in World Tasks grew out of the Forward Movement. It was felt by many that as the Churches had so successfully carried through together the campaign, a study of the common tasks facing them on the foreign field and the work being done by each of the co-operating communions would be most timely and of the largest profit. It would also be a study of Foreign Missions from the national standpoint - a feature of the Forward Movement which made a very large appeal.
