John Peck

    John Mason Peck fu un abolizionista e missionario battista sulla frontiera occidentale degli Stati Uniti. Il suo lavoro si concentrò sulla fondazione di chiese e istituzioni educative al servizio delle comunità in via di sviluppo. Fu determinante nella fondazione di diverse organizzazioni battiste che sostennero iniziative religiose ed educative nell'Ovest. La dedizione di Peck alla diffusione del cristianesimo e dell'istruzione plasmò il panorama religioso dell'antico West americano.
