Methodist missions in Asia

Methodist missions in Asia involve organized efforts by the Methodist Church to spread Christianity, provide social services, and promote education and healthcare across Asian countries. Starting in the 19th century, these missions aimed to improve local communities through spiritual support and practical help, such as building schools and hospitals. They also fostered cultural exchange and community development. Over time, Methodist missions adapted to local contexts, encouraging indigenous leadership and sustainable initiatives, while respecting diverse traditions and promoting social justice in the regions they serve.
