When someone tries to change your beliefs, it is called persuasion or influence. This can involve presenting arguments, evidence, or emotional appeals to convince you to adopt a different belief or perspective.
What religion spread from North Africa to west Africa
Christian missionaries exist because of Jesus' command to 'preach the gospel to every creature.' (meaning people of course). Missionaries themselves love and know Jesus and wish to share the good news with others.
The church ladies in the Missionary Society are interested in supporting and promoting missionary work, both locally and globally. They are often involved in fundraising, organizing outreach programs, and providing aid to communities in need. Their goal is to spread their faith and help those less fortunate.
The irony in the missionary circle is the ladies are discussing how to help people who are less fortunate than themselves in another country and NONE of them are interesting in helping the Robinson family who is right in their own town.
Gary Miller converted to Islam after studying the Quran and finding logical reasoning and evidence in its teachings. He was particularly persuaded by the scientific accuracy and linguistic beauty of the Quran, which led him to embrace Islam as his faith.
There is not enough information to accurately answer this question. Can you please provide more context or specify who "mmb" is?
Puritan missionaries came to America in the 17th century primarily to spread the Christian faith and establish a community based on their religious beliefs. Indentured servants, on the other hand, were primarily brought to America to work off their debts or to establish a new life. While the motivations behind their journeys were different, both groups played a significant role in the colonization of America.
No, Ginnie Moon and Lottie Moon were not sisters. Ginnie Moon was an American rocket scientist and space technology engineer, while Lottie Moon was a Southern Baptist missionary to China in the 19th century. They do not share a familial relationship.
The irony lies in the fact that the ladies of the missionary society are deeply concerned about the Mrunas' living conditions in Africa but fail to address the racial discrimination and prejudice faced by the African Americans in their own community. The ladies show more concern for a distant group of people than for those in their own backyard.

The Portuguese arrived in Ghana in 1471, although there are no records on the web for it, one may safely assume that the Portuguese brought priests with them, who would have been the first missionaries.
Converting people to Christianity.
It was more than that. In the North they did not establish any churches or attempt any "converts" this was because Fredrick Lugard would not allow them.
In areas where Islam dominated Christianity did not have much of an influence. Because Islam is more of a dominate religion.
However, one of the principle objectives were to attempt to remove the many and strong supersitions of Nigerians along with abolishing the many practices of Human sackrifices (sp). The Christians also wanted to impose Western morality on to the Nigerians in a false belief that their morality was superior to the Igbos, Yoruba or other Nations within the area of their control they named Nigeria. So Polygamous relationships needed controlling, the idea of the powerful market women who could earn more than their husband did not fit in with their Victorian view of a womans place in the home. Or the use of Christian names because the lazy missionaries could not pronounce the African names, in class.
The introduction of the Christian Missionary School CMS was also used to introduce Western Education to prepare Nigerians to modern ways of thinking and economy. Both Yoruba and Igbo nations embraced this as a way to advance themselves. In the run up independence the Northern States of Nigerian mainly Hausa and Fulani Muslim states found themselves at a disadvantage so the British fixed the 1st elections to ensure that the Islamic North had control over the rest of the Federation.
Initially the British run Nigeria as two separate states Northern = Islamic and Southern. Until they were merged in 1914. Ironically the British liked the Islamic model of government as it made their work easier to Adminster such a large area with very few Colonial Adminstrators on the ground. Utilizing the Islamic model served the British purposes as it reached a broader mass than having to convert the hetrogenous southern states of various traditional beliefs.
Mexican people are not different from other humans. Most of them have the same spiritual needs you and me require:
The missionaries brought Christianity and basic education to the aborigines of remote Australia. To aid in their management of the aboriginal population, they encouraged them to move from their traditional lifestyles onto centralised missions. Here, they were provided such necessities as flour, sugar and tea, so that they did not need to leave the missions to hunt for food.
The centralised lifestyle soon brought the people into close contact with white Australians, bringing them occasional, low paid work and access to alcohol. The teaching of Christianity meant that the aborigines were encouraged to forget their traditional religions and cultures. They began to be forced to speak English at all times, thus losing their native languages and traditions.
Gradually, alcoholism, sexual diseases and domestic violence became part of the lifestyle of many aborigines in remote areas. With large numbers of children of mixed racial heritage, the governments and missions worked together in many cases, to remove these children and offer them what was thought to be a better lifestyle.
There were both positive and negative outcomes of the missionaries involvement in aboriginal communities, and not all the problems of modern aboriginal communities are solely the result of missionary intervention.
