William Carey is called as the father and forerunner of the Missionary Movement. He was born in England, cobbler by trade, a devout Christian and a gifted linguist. He had a strong conviction to take the gospel to the heathen. In the year 1793, William Carey with his family and friend John Thomas arrived in Kolkata, India. His ministerial journey was a grim experience as he faced unemployment, lost his three year old child, his wife Dorothy lost her sanity and above all East India Company announced missionary work as illegal.
