Father of Modern Missions
WILLIAM CAREY
Spiritual
Born in England in 1761, Carey sailed for India shortly after his ordination as a Baptist minister. Carey’s harvest would be great, indeed almost unthinkable by today’s standards.
For not only was William Carey winning souls for Jesus — “baptizing them in the name of the Father , and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” — he was keenly involved in improving the quality of life for millions, “teaching them to observe all things...”
William Carey, in his own words, not only expected great things from God, he attempted great things for His Lord and Savior.
