Book
The death of Rev J. H. Davies in April 1890 could have meant the end of the endeavor of the Young Men’s Fellowship of the Presbyterian Church of Victoria to establish a Victorian Presbyterian Church mission in Korea. But far from dampening the growing missionary spirit in the colonial Victorian Church, the death of Rev Davies challenged the home Church to make greater efforts. By August 1890 the women of the Church, who were already involved in various ways of supporting missionaries, banded together to form the Presbyterian Women’s Missionary Union of Victoria (PWMU) In 1891 they had already raised enough financial support and developed the necessary organisational support and sent three women missionaries to Korea.
