CARL VINGREN was born in Sweden, near Stockholm, in 1865; was converted at the age of seventeen and joined the Luthern* Church. In 1885, he was baptized and joined the Baptist Church; graduated from the Baptist Theological Seminary at Stockholm in 1890; soon after he was appointed by the Baptists of Sweden as their first missionary to China, where he spent four years, laboring in North China. His zeal literally consumed him and he came to Kansas City in 1896 to regain his health. God blessed him not only with the return of health but also with a great and continuous revival in the Swedish Church of which he was pastor. On May 26, 1905, he was appointed by the Foreign Mission Board to North China where he now labors.
