Sinopsis

Explore a historical collection of Discourses and Missionary Reflections that span China, Singapore, life at sea, and scenes from England. This edition gathers miscellaneous sermons and remarks on missions by Robert Morrison, offering insight into early 19th‑century Christian Outreach and the motive, method, and meaning behind a global mission.


Written to encourage steadfast faith and practical dedication, the book blends theological teaching with accounts of mission work, challenges faced by sailors and merchants, and calls to spread the Gospel with humility, perseverance, and love. It presents the author’s perspective on salvation, the responsibilities of Christians abroad, and the spiritual aims that guided his ministry across continents and seas.



  • Foundational sermons such as The Way of Salvation and reflections on the power of love in mission work

  • Context for early missionary strategy, including attitudes toward foreign cultures and the use of kindness and integrity in outreach

  • Practical notes on discipline, cooperation, and perseverance for missionaries and supporters at home

  • Historical glimpses into the challenges and ethics of mission life in the age of sail and global trade


Ideal for readers curious about early modern missions, religious history, and the personal, devotional side of cross‑cultural outreach.

Excerpt from A Parting Memorial: Consisting of Miscellaneous Discourses, Written and Preached in China; At Singapore; On Board Ship at Sea, in the Indian Ocean; At the Cape of Good Hope; And in England, With Remarks on Missions, &C. &C

He humbly prays that the Almighty Father's blessing, and the Power of Christ, may rest on all Christian Churches; and that the Holy Spirit's influences may be abundantly shed down from on high upon all men to the end that all the nations may be turned from darkness to light, and from dumb idols to the living God - that Truth and Righteousness, Holiness and Happiness, may fill the whole Earth.

Excerpt from A Parting Memorial: Consisting of Miscellaneous Discourses, Written and Preached in China; At Singapore; On Board Ship at Sea, in the Indian Ocean; At the Cape of Good Hope; And in England, With Remarks on Missions, &C. &C

During the year of our Lord 1824, whilst travelling in England, Ireland, and Scotland, the Author of the following Discourses received much attention, and many civilities from zealous Christian Friends, in every part of the United Kingdom, to whom he had no introduction but his public character. His having resided many years in a distant heathen, populous country, for the purpose of transfusing into its language the Holy Scriptures, excited on his behalf an interest which, under other circumstances, could not have been felt.

Having had the satisfaction, during his stay in England, to see originated a public attention to the language of China, he is now about to revisit that country; and therefore, in accordance with a principle he has often advocated, he avails himself of

The Press,

to leave with his Friends, and the Public, this Volume, as a

Parting Memorial.
