Research
The Foote 2028 project
We will also not forget the dedication of the many Canadian missionaries who were planted as grains of wheat in Korea. As part of these efforts, three missionaries (Robert G. Grierson from Halifax, William R. Foote from the Wolfville area, and Duncan MacRae from Baddeck, Cape Breton) were sent from Halifax to Joseon three years after McKenzie’s passing. We have discovered one of them, Missionary William Foote, and are working with the Presbytery’s “Missionary Search Committee for Korea” on the “Missionary Foote Autobiography” project. We aim to complete this project by 2028, marking the 130th anniversary of Missionary Foote’s dispatch to Joseon.
William Rufus Foote served in Korea from 1898 to 1928, centred on Wonsan. The existing project account looks toward the 130th anniversary in 2028 through a biography, digitisation of archival material, and commemorative worship and gatherings.
