The small town of Hernnhutt, in the east of Germany, was built by the Moravians in 1722. After a period of deep dispute amongst them which almost lead to the separation and scattering of the whole community, they entered a period of deep heart searching during which the Lord dealt with them in deep conviction for a period of three months.
It was at a communion service on the 13th August 1727 that the Spirit of God was poured out upon them in a most powerful and extraordinary way. As a result the love of God was shed abroad in their hearts and a prayer and missionary Movement was birthed.
Of the first 29 missionaries sent out from Hernnhutt, 22 were killed, but for every one killed two more stepped up to take their place. Under the leadership of Count Zinzendorf over the next 30 years 300 missionaries were sent out from this small community. During that time this community never grew bigger than about 600 people.
Backed by a 24 hour prayer watch, missionaries set out two by two, sometimes taking years to reach their destination mission-field on foot and by boat. Some went forth only armed with shoes on their feet – no organisation, no financial resource, no strategy or cultural knowledge. What they did have was a local Church which acted as their missionary base. What drove them was a love for Christ, a burden for souls, a commission from Christ and faith in the promises of God.
John Wesley had his first encounter with Moravian missionaries in 1736 on his way to America prior to his own conversion. They later played a vital role in his conversion to Christ by faith in 1738. This of course was just prior to the Great Awakening (revival) in Britain and America.
