In 2019 Macao Baptist Church celebrates its 115th anniversary. How did this Baptist church come to be established in the Portuguese administered, Chinese city of Macao? Through examination of letters and reports from the main protagonists, John Laurels and Lilian Reeves Todd Galloway, the process of establishing the Baptist church can be revealed and understood within the greater context of the Baptist missionary work in China. The Galloway’s work is evaluated through a framework of different missions’ eras. This work looks at the material in two major sections; first, the lives of the Galloways in Macao from 1908 to 1968, and second, the missionary methods of the Galloways over the same period. Using missiological methods from the era of Kingdom Mission, the Galloways stood firmly in the Church Mission era focusing their efforts on Personal rather than Social Transformation. Their work laid the foundation for a century of Baptist work in Macao by local Christians as well as foreign missionaries.
