Abstract
As described by the then Secretary of the Baptist Missionary Union and others, the 1890s missionary enterprise was unparalleled in opportunity though overburdened by success. Following in the footsteps of revered Burma missionary Adoniram Judson, his successors evangelized with expectation of imminent victory. Attitudes reflecting the times tended to be paternalistic, leading to serious mistakes. Yet a foundation was laid for an indigenous church which has survived wars and isolation and stands today against oppression. Much remains to be done and new approaches must be employed, but that is not to deny the legacy of Burma's pioneer missionaries.
