NUMBER OF MISSIONARIES
EVANGELISM
Factoid: In 1975 Anglo-Saxon missionaries outnumbered others 100,000 to 85,000, Bertuzzi said. By the year 2000 there will be 120,000 Anglo-Saxon missionaries and 150,000 missionaries from other backgrounds. The United States continues to field the largest single-country missionary force with 50,000. (From Rev. Jesus M. Huertes, “Religious News,” Alliance Life, 27 January 1999, 7.)
