Synopsis

A firsthand look at a landmark 1906 gathering that shaped Muslim world missions.

This collection presents the papers read at the Cairo conference, the discussions that followed, and the aims the participants set for global evangelization.

The volume traces how mission societies coordinated plans, shared methods, and encouraged literature and training to reach Muslim communities. It highlights the roles of committees, delegates, and early efforts to mobilize workers, schools, clinics, and Bible women in key regions. You’ll also see reflections on the growth of native Christians and the ongoing search for practical paths to renewal and revival.
