Excerpt from The Japan Mission Year Book, 1930: Formerly the Christian Movement in Japan and Formosa, A Year Book of Christian WorkThe year 1929 was a critical one in the history of Japan. Many major problems - economic, social, political and religious - confronted the nation. All of these problems have a very vital bearing upon the progress of the Christian cause and some under standing of them is essential to any one who wishes to estimate correctly the present status of the Church in the Sunrise Kingdom. It is a matter of congratulation that so many Christian leaders, both missionary and Japanese, have sensed the dire need of Japan and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit are contributing towards the solution of many vexing problems.The first Christian Social Conference was held in Tokyo in the summer of 1929. In order to preserve for permanent record some of the findings of that conference, three of the most valuable papers have been included in this volume.Attention of the readers in Japan should also be called to the directory of Christian Social activities which has been most carefully compiled by Miss Mildred A. Paine.The editor-in-chief hereby completes his third term as editor of the Japan Mission Year Book. To all who have so generously contributed of their labor and time to the making of the last three volumes of the Year Book we again extend our sincere gratitude.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
