Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions

The Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions was an organization formed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to encourage young people, particularly students, to dedicate their lives to spreading Christianity abroad. It aimed to recruit, train, and motivate students to become missionaries in other countries, emphasizing personal commitment and service. The movement played a significant role in inspiring large numbers of young Christians to pursue mission work, contributing to the expansion of Christian missions worldwide during that era. It reflected a broader push for global evangelism driven by the enthusiasm and mobilization of the youth.
