CHAPTER VIII.
THE NATIVE CHURCH.
In the Introduction we pointed out that the end for which the work surveyed is undertaken ought to govern the survey of the work.

Now we are constantly told that the end for which the station is founded is the establishment of a Christian Church in the district so strongly that if the station with its foreign staff disappeared, the Church would remain and bring up each generation in the Christian Faith.
This proposal sets before us a real end for the mission station.

It suggests a point at which the station will have done its work; the mission would then have no more place in those parts.

The station has thus an end, not only in the sense that it has an object at which it aims, but a point at which it ceases.
