Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Our Story" offers a comprehensive historical account of the Woman's Auxiliary to the Missionary Society of the Church of England in Canada, spanning the pivotal years from 1885 to 1928. This work chronicles the dedicated efforts of women within the Anglican community to support and expand domestic and foreign missions during a period of significant national growth.Written by Mrs. Willoughby Cummings, the narrative provides an insider's perspective on the organizational development, the challenges faced by early female leaders, and the profound impact of their philanthropic and spiritual labor. The text details how these women navigated the social and ecclesiastical structures of their time to establish a robust network of support for education, healthcare, and social welfare. By documenting the evolution of women's roles within the church, the book serves as a vital record of the intersection between gender, faith, and Canadian identity.This historical narrative remains an essential resource for scholars and readers interested in Canadian ecclesiastical history, the sociology of women's organizations, and the broader legacy of the global missionary movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
