Sinopsis

A moving look at a dedicated medical missionary who bridged world cultures in inland China.

This memorial draws from his letters and diaries to share the life and work of Harold Schofield, a physician who joined the China Inland Mission and served in Shan-si. Readers will follow his hopes, challenges, and quiet, steady resolve to serve others.

This edition presents a portrait of a man shaped by study, travel, and faith. It highlights the early life, medical training, and overseas service that together mapped a path from Oxford to the frontiers of China, offering a window into the practical realities of mission life in the late 19th century.
  • Learn about the daily rhythms of medical mission work and language study in a foreign land.
  • See how a physician-missionary engaged with local communities and adapted to diverse cultural contexts.
  • Experience the personal faith, perseverance, and partnerships that sustained long-term overseas service.
  • Gain historical insight into the broader Christian missionary movement in China during this era.
Ideal for readers of missionary biographies and those interested in the history of medical missions and China in the late 1800s.
