Focusing on the familial relations of missionaries, this work presents a fresh perspective on the philosophy and impact of mission work in the nineteenth century. By examining personal writings and institutional records from the London Missionary Society, it highlights the influence of family dynamics on missionary efforts in regions such as London, the Pacific, and southern Africa, suggesting a need to reevaluate the historical narrative of Christian missions.
