The North German Missionary Society or North German Mission is a Presbyterian Christian organisation based in Bremen formed on 19 April 1836 to unify missionary work in North Germany. The society has also been active among the Ewes in southeastern Gold Coast, now Ghana.[2] The mission was engaged in New Zealand and India prior to concentrating its activities in Ghana from 1847.[3]
Reverend Johan Hartwig Bauer was the first Inspector and he established a school for missionaries in Hamburg.[2]
