Silver Chimes in Syria: Glimpses of a Missionary's Experiences

A missionary recounts personal sketches of service in Syria, describing arrival and early language study, travel and camping, evangelistic journeys, and the founding and management of schools and mission stations. Episodes cover encounters with local communities, logistical and health challenges, occasional persecution and emigration, and the practical work of building institutions such as boys' schools. Interwoven are reflections on fellowship with colleagues and supporters, portraits of towns and religious life, and devotional observations that aim to deepen sympathy with and understanding of the missionary enterprise.
