From the missionaries, the Indians learned how to farm and how to take care of farm animals. Many missionaries also tried to "civilize" the Native Americans by teaching them a Western, monotheistic religion rather than the Native polytheistic religion that seemed incorrect and pagan to Western missionaries.

What do the missionaries do to help the Indians?

Missionaries have worked in the Amazon for many years. They supply medicine to treat the diseases brought by the white people, which continue to kill hundreds of Indians. They also teach the Indians to read and write so they can better protect themselves. Missionary airplanes fly supplies into the missions and in emergencies take people out of the jungle.
