The Board of Foreign Missions respectfully presents to the Gen­ eral Synod of the Reformed Church in America its one H u n ­ dred and Tenth Annual Report and the Eighty-fifth of its Sep­ arate and Independent Action and the Sixty-seventh Annual Re­ port of the Woman’s Board of Foreign Missions.

1 9 4 2 FOREWORD

The Board of Foreign Missions and the Woman’s Board of Foreign Missions have this year joined with the other Boards and Agencies of the Church in presenting the work of the year in a common story of the year. The General Synod is referred to this volume for the main facts of the year’s operations.

We are presenting here the financial statements of the Board of Foreign Missions, a summary of the receipts and expenditures of Synod’s Board and the Woman’s Board and a brief outline of im­ portant matters of personnel and policy not included in the joint story of the year.

While the detailed financial statement of the Woman’s Board will be made available to the Church in separate form, this report is being presented as a joint report of both Boards as has been the practice for the past two years. The Boards work in close coopera­ tion with a united budget and a united approach to field problems and it is therefore appropriate that the report to the General Synod should be made in this form.

It has been a year of swiftly moving events, each day bringing new and staggering problems, but the consecration and courage of the missionaries and their families and the steady and unperturbed loyalty and faith of the Church have been an unfailing source of inspiration and strength to us at the Church House. We can only be deeply grateful to God for His infinite mercy and His loving care.

D o r o t h y V a n E s s ANNUAL REPORT, 1942 The War The fall months of 1941 were lived in a sense of impending crisis in the Pacific. All but two of our missionaries had left Japan and the greater number of the mothers with children had come home from China. With the hinterland of free China to which to withdraw and with the amazing opportunities offered for preaching the Gospel, male missionaries and the single women were reluctant to leave. Two of the evangelistic missionaries, Dr. Henry Poppen and Rev. H. M. Veenschoten, returned to the field, leaving their families in this country. They arrived at Kulangsu on November 27th. In India conditions remained normal and the earlier disturbed situation in Iraq and the Persian Gulf had quieted down. Missionaries had re­ turned to Baghdad and work was progressing normally. Then war broke out in the Pacific. On December the 7th there were two missionaries in Japan, twenty-two adults and five children in China, with the other Missions at full strength. Eleven of the adults and five children in China were on the Island of Kulangsu. The last letter to reach them from the Board had indicated that it might be well to evacuate to free China, since Kulangsu would not be safe, but the letter could have arrived only a few days before the war, and in any case boats had not been permitted to run between the island and the mainland for some time; consequently they were caught on the island. Money had reached them just before war broke and money had also been provided in Japan for months ahead. With the advent of war, communications were cut off and the story of the next few months, so far as our missionaries in Japan and China were concerned, was one of reestablishing contact. First a cable was received from the Mission in free China, asking for money. A supply was sent through the Bank of China and through a newly established Missions Bureau for all the Missions in Chungking we obtained assurance that the funds had been received. From various messages received through the Embassy at Chungking and through the Swiss Government it gradually became clear that the missionaries on Kulangsu had been at first interned, then released to their homes; that Miss Couch was technically interned in Japan but that both she and Miss Darrow were safe and well. A cable just received from the Mission in free China reported that contact had been established with the Island of Kulangsu and that plans were being made for the repatriation, with American diplomatic representatives in the Far East, of Mrs. Agnus and three 3 4 FOREIGN MISSIONS

children, Mrs. Vander Meer and two children, Mr. Voskuil, Mr. Koeppe and Miss Geraldine Smies. The others are for the present at least remaining on the Island of Kulangsu. Money has been deposited with the State Department on which our missionaries there and also in Japan are permitted to draw for subsistence needs through the Swiss Government. As the war swept toward India, increased concern was felt for the missionaries there. In April Rev. and Mrs. Ralph Korteling, Rev. and Mrs. H. E. Van Vranken and daughter, due on furlough from India, and Mrs. Galen Scudder and son, whose furlough is due next year, suddenly appeared in New York, having made use of the oppor­ tunity to leave India on two days’ notice. While, as in the earlier case of Japan and China, the Board has cabled the Arcot Mission granting full liberty of action, at present there is no indication that any general evacuation is contemplated by our Mission in India. In Arabia the year has been one of increased opportunities. The enrollment at the Basrah Boys’ School, for example, is at capacity and eighty boys had to be turned away at the beginning of the school year.

The China Centenary of the Amoy Mission The celebration of the China Centenary has given the Church a unique opportunity to register its interest in the Christian task in China. A significant series of anniversary meetings was held through­ out the Church and the new literature on China was in great demand. Altogether about 200,000 pieces of literature were distributed in re­ sponse to definite requests. A cable recently received from Free China gives assurance that the war was not permitted to interrupt the cam­ paign of house-to-house visitation carried on in China as a part of the commemoration of the one hundred years, and reports that evangelistic opportunities are great. The Board sent a letter of greetings and a cable to the South Fukien Synod of the Church of Christ in China and greetings were also sent from other bodies, among them the Classis of Grand Rapids. During the year there has been received for the Centenary Fund $14,123.22 and for the David Abeel Fund of the Woman’s Board $10,593.93. In connection with the Centenary celebra­ tion and the emergency in the Far East there has been continued prayer in public and in private for our missionaries, their families separated from them, and for their colleagues in the work. We are deeply grateful to the Church for the loyal support given the Centenary celebration in all its aspects. One very encouraging feature of the year has been the increased number of candidates who have offered for service abroad, This has given convincing evidence that there is no lack of consecration and conviction on the part of the youth of our Church. It is clear that THE WAR AND MISSIONARY PERSONNEL 5

young people will be ready whenever the Church is prepared to send them. The Boards rejoice that it is possible to report that all but two of the new recruits asked for by the Chinese Church and the Amoy Mission have been appointed for service in China.

The War and Missionary Personnel This raises the difficult question of the policy to be followed with regard to missionaries now in this country or under appointment to the field. It is, at the present time, almost if not entirely impossible to secure accommodations for travel to the field for any but doctors or nurses. The Foreign Missions Conference has arranged to decide upon priorities and has made a common approach to government and travel agencies for all the Boards. Under this arrangement five mission­ aries of other Boards left recently for China and India. It was possible independently to secure a passport and sailing accommodations for Miss Wilhelmina Noordyk late this spring. It is anticipated that Dr. Harold Storm will return to Arabia some time during the summer. For the present, however, most of our missionaries now in this country and new appointees will not be able to proceed to the field. The Board has followed the policy of maintaining intact the larger part of the missionary force, including those home from Japan, in order that the maximum effort can be put forth as soon as hostilities cease. Missionaries not able to return to their fields have engaged in deputation work or taken temporary work in connection with some local church or other Boards or agencies. The service of several mission­ aries, supported by our Boards but working in cooperation with the Boards of Domestic Missions among Japanese or in Mission Churches and institutions, has been a particularly happy example of the effective disposal of our forces. Miss Helen Zander is acting as Secretary for Young Women’s Woi'k and the Rev. Barnerd M. Luben has been Acting Field Secretary for the Board of Foreign Missions.

The Support of Missionaries The question of the support of missionaries in this country has been raised by some. A church which has a missionary project will need to look at the whole situation. There are today, in this kind of a war situation, several types of missionaries: 1. Missionaries who are on the field and at work normally. These comprise the bulk of our missionary force. 2. Missionaries on regular furlough in this coun­ try. 3. Missionaries who are interned in Japan or in Japanese-occupied territory. 4. The families of missionaries, on the field or interned, who are in this country. 5. Missionaries in this country who are temporarily unable to return to the field. All these different types of 6 FOREIGN MISSIONS

missionaries need to be supported. Though engaged in other work for the time being, their support, except in certain cases, remains the responsibility of the Boards of Foreign Missions. Those who are tem­ porarily off the field because of war conditions should not be penalized or made to feel that they are any less worthy of our support than those who, under God’s providence, have been permitted to remain on the field.

What of the Future The Foreign Missions Conference, meeting at Trenton, January 12-15, 1942, issued the following significant Statement: “As we confront this tragic hour, we reiterate our conviction that the world mission of the Church is a spiritual commitment which is eternal and cannot be destroyed by the contrivances of man. **** We pledge to our missionaries and their national col­ leagues our vigorous support in carrying forward the missionary program of the churches. Where the work has been disrupted we will prepare to undertake the task afresh as soon as this is physically possible. *** It is clear that when peace comes again the successful prosecution of the task may call for new patterns and lead us to a different allocation of forces. We must also be pre­ pared to enter any new doors which God may open to us.” Plans are being made unitedly by the Foreign Missions Conference for the recruiting and training of a small body of young men and women who will be prepared for the new day in Japan. Among Church and secular groups alike, the large part to be played by the missionary movement and the resulting World Church in any durable peace that may follow the war is becoming increasingly clear. In line with these and other related matters, the Board has appointed a committee to make a study of the whole question of the post-war situation and the demands that it may make upon the mission­ ary purpose of our Reformed Church.

The Cleveland Convocation A great Convocation will be held at Cleveland, December 10-14, 1942. It is anticipated that this Conference will be the largest and most representative meeting of the Protestant Church held in America for many years. The quota of delegates for the Reformed Church is 180, ninety of these allocated to our Boards of Foreign Missions. The Board recommends that Synod instruct the Board to plan for this Convocation in association with our Boards of Domestic Missions and likewise to arrange for a series of conferences throughout the Church, subsequent to the Convocation to bring to the Church the inspiration and benefit of this great Church gathering. This recommendation is in line with a resolution of the Classis of Grand Rapids. SPECIAL ACTIVITIES OF THE WOMAN’S BOARD 7

Special Activities of the Woman’s Board One important aspect of the work of the Woman’s Board is the Sewing Guild. During the year thirty-one boxes of supplies went to India, thirty-two to Arabia and, in addition, supplies were sent to China through returning missionaries. These included garments, hospital and school supplies, and articles for Christmas gifts on the field, all greatly needed by our missionaries. Not a single box was lost. Increasingly, groups sending Sewing Guild materials have accompanied them with cash gifts which have aided greatly in this period of mount­ ing freight costs. Twenty-four new life members were added and three memorial gifts were received. Each life member is assigned a prayer partner on the field. The Baby Roll has been largely increased, a total of $673.00 having been received in this way for work among children in the different fields.

PERSONNEL

At the June meeting of the Board the Rev. Dr. Thomas Hanna Mackenzie, for thirty-one years a member of the Board and for many years Chairman of the Executive Committee, was suitably recognized. Dr. Mackenzie was made an Honorary Member of the Board and invited to attend the meetings of the Board and the Executive Com­ mittee. Recognition was also given to the resignation of Miss Sue Weddell, General Secretary of the Woman’s Board of Foreign Missions, to become a Secretary of the Foreign Missions Conference. Miss Weddell has been greatly missed in the counsels of the Board and Church this year. Mrs. John Van Ess, a member of the Arabian Mission on furlough, has been Acting Secretary during the year and has brought to that office her vigor of personality and her wealth of experience as a missionary of our Church.

Rev. James E. Moerdyk The death of the Rev. James E. Moerdyk on July 24, 1941 brought to a close a long life of faithful missionary service in Arabia. It is noteworthy that of his forty-one years of service only six were spent away from the field on furlough. At the time of his appointment the letters of reference emphasized his industry, conscientiousness and practicality and these qualities were revealed throughout his service to an unusual degree. In the course of his career he w£s appointed to all the stations of the Mission, in the earlier years with frequent changes, but for the last decade remaining at Amarah. He did not leave his post even at the time of the insurrection in Iraq during the spring and summer months of 1941. 8 FOREIGN MISSIONS

Mr. Moerdyk was Treasurer of the Mission for almost the entire period of his service and he also constructed many of the buildings of the Mission. In these ways his splendid practical equipment was of great value to the Mission. At the same time, these qualities were combined with a deep evangelistic fervor. He was a man of unwavering devotion to his Lord. Of no man could it be more appropriately stated, “He was found faithful”.

Miss Margaret C. Morrison Miss Margaret Morrison became emeritus from the Amoy Mission five years ago. She had been in failing health for some time and died in South Carolina on February 5, 1942. It is just fifty years since Miss Morrison went out to the Amoy Mission. She began her service as evangelist and educator in the Girls’ School at Sio-khe, and was then for a time in Amoy, doing home visiting and teaching in the Women’s Bible School. Most of her forty-five years on the field were spent as Principal of the Girls’ School in Changchow, which enrolls three hundred girls. Miss Morrison acquired an exceptional mastery of the Chinese language and her qualities of sympathy and generosity made a profound impression on the lives of a long suc­ cession of Chinese young women.

Mrs. C. Stanley G. Mylrea Dr. and Mrs. Mylrea had just retired from the Arabian Mission and Mrs. Mylrea’s death on April 16, 1'942, came as they were looking forward to a restful interlude in Kodaikanal, India. Mrs. Mylrea had never possessed robust health, but in spite of this limitation she lived a rich life in missionary service. She had a personality of rare charm and her graces of mind and spirit and her gift for homemaking made even a little Arab house in the middle of a great unfriendly Moslem city an oasis of peaceful Christian life. She found time for study and became an Arabic scholar of considerable attainment. The succession of language students who have had the benefit of her instruction and encouragement are greatly indebted to her. In the early days, although she had had no medical training, she constantly served as anesthetist for her husband. She was always ready to undertake whatever task fell to her lot and her zest for the small details of everyday living made her an incomparable colleague and comrade. The sympathy of his many friends in all parts of the world will go out to the companion of her life whom she leaves behind.

Mrs. De Witt Knox The death of Mrs. De Witt Knox should also be recorded in this Report. Mrs. Knox was for seventeen years the faithful President PERSONNEL 9

of the Woman’s Board of Foreign Missions. She retired from that office in 1938 and after a short illness died on January 11, 1942. Mrs. Knox had a diversity of interests and used her gift of leader­ ship in many vital organizations. She was President of the New York Women’s Bible Society and President of the American Governing Boards of the two interdenominational institutions, the Vellore Medical College for Women in India and the Women’s Christian College of Japan. She took a leading part in the Jubilee of all the Women’s Boards of Foreign Missions in the United States in 1911, in the Jubilee of our own Woman’s Board in 1925 and in the Tencentenary Celebra­ tion of our Church. Her interest in Foreign Missions, whether in her own Church or in her service to the Church at large was a lifelong one and through her gracious personality she led many others to the cause so dear to her. Her long life of consecrated service to the Master was a source of strength to all who were associated with her.

Rev. Lewis B. Chamberlain, D.D. On February 25, 1942, Dr. Lewis B. Chamberlain died in New York City after a short illness. Dr. Chamberlain, a brother of the late Rev. William I. Chamberlain, Ph.D., was a member of the Arcot Mis­ sion from the year 1891 to 1915. His deep interest in the evangelistic outreach of the Mission is well remembered by a large circle of his old Indian associates. Returning to America, he joined the staff of the American Bible Society, where he served until 1935. From 1935 until his death, Dr. Chamberlain served as General Secretary of the John Milton Society for the Blind, which has developed a gi n expanded program under his inspiring leadership. He was an active member of the St. Nicholas Church and helped very materially in the missionary program of that church.

In presenting this Report, the Boards and their Secretaries wish to thank the Church for the loyal support which they have received during the year./ Many letters have been received from pastors, con­ sistories and societies, expressing their concern about the situation and their desire to undergird the program of Foreign Missions with prayer and support. The Resolutions of various Classes and of the Western Theological Seminary have also been a source of strength and encouragement. We go into the coming year recognizing that even greater problems may confront us, but we go forward in faith in God and in confidence that the Reformed Church will show itself worthy of its great heritage. 10 FOREIGN MISSIONS

FINANCES

The summary of Receipts which appears on the opposite page, will, with a few comments, make clear the results of the operations of the year. The report of the Certified Public Accountants, on pages 35 to 46 gives a complete picture of the financial status of the Board. The most significant figures are those appearing under I, as the Board must depend upon these receipts not designated for particular objects to meet the budget of the year. The total, $303,109.65, is $32,881.21 larger than the corresponding total of the previous year. As a result, not only was the budget of the year fully balanced, but the whole of the old debt of $39,493.36 has been liquidated. Two facts are notable in this connection; first, that in spite of all the catastrophic developments of the year, the actual expenditures on current work were almost exactly the amount calculated in the budget of the Board a year ago; second, that one family contributed this year the full amount necessary to meet the old debt. We express our appreciation of the steady support of the Church which made it possible to balance the budget of the year and our hearty thanks to the two dear old friends of the Board whose names, by their own request, never appear but who have relieved us of a heavy burden at a time of anxiety. The total for Special Objects, $75,071.96, is $16,202.66 larger than the corresponding figure of the preceding year. This includes $14,123.22 raised for the China Centenary Fund. A large Conditional Gift of $18,461.55 matured during the year through the death of the beneficiary. This also is included in the total received for Special Objects and has been applied to offset some of the depreciation of investments in recent years.

It is of interest to analyze further the gifts toward the regular budget for the past two years. Gifts ifrom churches show a gain of $4,263.03 or 3}4%, from Sunday Schools a gain of $3,713.80 or 12%, while the gifts of Young People’s Societies decreased $166.89 or 14^%. The contribution of the Woman’s Board was $4,138.00 less, a loss of 5%. Receipts from individuals, as has already been noted, were most generous, showing an increase of 52%. FINANCES 13

NOTE—The totals shown above are slightly lower than those ap­ pearing in the report of the Certified Public Accountants because they have included certain items received in earlier years and transferred to other accounts this year. 14 FOREIGN MISSIONS

HOME EXPENDITURES AND PER CAPITA GIFTS

The Home Expenditures of the Woman’s Board are not included in this calculation as they are an independent expenditure of that Board. The Home Expenditures of the Board of Foreign Missions, details of which appear on page 40, totaled $31,770.99, a very slight decrease below the total of the preceding year. This figure represents a little under 8^4% of total receipts.

The per capita rate of receipts, calculated upon the basis of total receipts, is $2.32 as compared with $2.02 in the preceding year. Cal­ culated upon the basis of contributions from living donors, the per capita rate is $1.97 as compared with $1.75 in the preceding year. Again we call attention to the fact that the corresponding figures, over twenty years ago, were $2.46 and $2.04.

FIELD EXPENDITURES

Totals expended for the regular budgets of the Missions were as follows: Amoy, $49,754.92; Arcot, $83,373.36; Japan, $35,236.03; Arabia, $55,384.19; United Mission in Mesopotamia, $4,580, a grand total of $228,328.50. The corresponding figure of the preceding year was $227y850.62, which indicates further the fact that the disturbances of the year, while creating savings at a few points, increased expenditures at others so that the full budget was required.

THE WOMAN’S BOARD

Receipts from all sources totaled $151,217.54, a decrease of $5,410.51 below the total of the preceding year. The gifts toward the regular budget, however, totaling $121,241.13, were $1,993.89 above the level of the preceding year. Included in the grand total are legacies, $1,549.72, interest on investments, $11,301.10, $10,583.93 for the David Abeel Fund and $2,094.02 for the Anna Bacon Memorial Bed in the Olcott Memorial Hospital, Kuwait. $84,772.50 was transmitted to Synod’s Board for the regular work of the year and $3,673.53 for special objects.

The year was characterized by unusually close and harmonious cooperation between the two Boards as they faced the serious problems of the year together. STATISTICAL SUMMARY 15

THE BOARD OF FOREIGN MISSIONS, R. C. A. Auditors’ Statement

May 19, 1942. The Board of Foreign Missions, R. C. A., 156 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

G entlem en:

We have completed our examination of the hooks of account of The Board of For­ eign Missions, R. C. A., for the year ended April 80, 1942, and submit herewith state­ ments, prepared from these records, marked Exhibits “A” , “B” , and “ C” and Schedules N o. 1, N o. 2 and N o. 3. Based on such examination, the statements mentioned above, when considered in connection with the following brief comments, in our opinion Bet forth fairly the Board's financial condition at April 30, 1942 and its revenue and expenditures for the year then ended. The balance of cash on deposit at April 30, 1942, as shown by the cash book, was reconciled with the amount confirmed to us by the Bank of the Manhattan Company as being on deposit as at that date. The monthly totals of receipts shown by the cash book were compared and reconciled with the totals of deposits for corresponding months credited on bank statements on file in the Board’s office. Paid checks returned by the bank were examined and compared, as to amounts and names of payees, with disburse­ ment entries in the cash book. The petty cash on hand was counted on May 12, 1942. In connection with investments at April 30, 1942. consisting of cash in savings bank, bonds, stocks, mortgages and real estate, we examined documents as follows: Bonds and stock certificates kept in the Board’s safe deposit box (examined on M ay 11, 1942) Passbook for the savings account with The Bank for Savings in the City of New Y o rk Mortgage documents kept in the Board’s office safe Letters received directly by us from others and letters addressed to the Board con­ firming investments held by the writers of such letters as agents or trustees for the Board. Detail records relating to changes in the money balance of the investment account were examined and compared with the related entries in the books of account. Through the redemption and sale of bonds, the sale of real estate and satisfaction of mortgage, a net loss of 57,605.94 (excess of book values over proceeds) was sustained. The Board has allocated this net loss as follows: Net losses charged to Trust Funds ...... $6,201.25 Net losses charged to “Unallocated Loss on Sales of Trust Fund Invest­ m en ts” ...... 1,404.69

$7,605.94 The latter account was also charged with $200.00 representing voluntary reduction by the Board of part of a mortgage investment. Credits to this account during the year under review were as follows: Refunds applicable to sales of investments made in prior years...... $ 575.68 Appropriation of General Fund revenue by the Board (amount of annuity matured through death of annuitant) ...... 18,461.55 The resulting balance of this account at April 30, 1942 was $17,459.35, the amount shown on Exhibit “B” as deducted from the total of Trust Funds. A legacy was received by the Board in the form of part interest in a mortgage and real estate. We understand that it was not found possible to place a satisfactory valuation upon these items and, therefore, it was decided to record them in the books of account at no amount, with the intention of deferring entry of an amount in the accounts until after liquidation of these items. Investments of the Board at April 30, 1942 are listed in this report on Schedule No. 2 showing for all items the book value and for items of bonds (other than real estate mortgage bonds) and corporate stocks, current values based on published prices at or near April 30, 1942. Where such prices were not found, no amount is shown in the column headed “Value based on published prices at or near April 30, 1942”. How­ ever this is not intended to indicate that there is no value for such items. Trusrt Funds were increased during the period by the transfer of accumulated in­ come of the E. R. Voorhees Trust Fund, in the amount of $5,412.50, to the principal 36 FOREIGN MISSIONS of that fund and by sundry adjustments and transfers in the net amount of $24.74 and reduced by the net loss from the sale or redemption of Trust Fund investments in the amount of $6,201.25. Conditional gifts (annuity funds) were decreased during the year by transferring to General Fund revenue $18,461.55, the amount of an annuity matured through the death of the annuitant. Receipts and disbursements of funds handled solely as accommodations are shown only on Exhibit “C” and are not included in Revenue or Expenditures on Exhibit “A”. Certain features of total revenues and total expenditures have been verified as indicated in previous paragraphs. We have not, however, made a complete examination to ascertain whether or not all credits for revenue and charges for expenditures have been made to the proper accounts, nor have we attempted to determine, by detailed examination of the records, whether there has been compliance with all conditions and restrictions under which funds have been received. Classifications of balances in the statements herewith are based on classifications in your accounts.
