Christian mission in the twenty-first century will be ‘mission from below’. Its base will be in the Southern continents and it will be carried on through new global partnerships. This fascinating study about Christian mission in Jamaica and from Jamaica to Africa during the last century, provides valuable clues and warnings to figure out the future. Horace Russell has condensed years of careful and painstaking research and wise interpretation in the study, which is indispensable reading for anyone interested in Christian mission in Africa and the Caribbean.

Dr. Horace O. Russell and I served on the same theological faculty for many years. He has shared with me often his exceptional knowledge regarding the mission from the West Indies to West Africa. I am pleased that he is now releasing this valuable information to the reading public. This work is a valuable read. (J. Deotis Roberts, Research Professor of Theology, Duke Divinity School)
