The educational establishments grew strong and famous.

But especially the Indian missions spread far and wide.

The story of these missions is one of the fairest and most radiant pages in the history of the American church, and one of the bloodiest.
Zinzendorf, dying at London in May, 1756, was spared, we may hope, the heartbreaking news of the massacre at Gnadenhuetten the year before.

But from that time on, through the French wars, the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and down to the infamy of Georgia and the United States in 1837, the innocent and Christlike Moravian missions have been exposed from every side to the malignity of savage men both white and red.

No order of missionaries or missionary converts can show a nobler roll of martyrs than the Moravians.[194:1] The work of Muehlenberg for the Lutherans stimulated the Reformed churches in Europe to a like work for their own scattered and pastorless sheep.
