【摘要】 18—19世纪初期，安立甘教派遣的传教士从英国长途跋涉来到北美南部，面临着黄热病、疟疾和痢疾等疾病的威胁，不断患病和死亡。这迫使他们短期迁移到其他被认为更有益于健康的南部教区或者北部任职，或者到加勒比群岛的巴巴多斯、百慕大等地区恢复健康，甚至离开北美返回英国。结果南部许多教区的牧师职位多年空缺，幸存在职的传教士难以履行各种职责，无法提供民众所需要的服务。在这种情况下，南部民众纷纷转向清教教派寻求心灵安慰和宗教服务。而清教教派尤其是浸礼会，能够在美国迅速招募适应本土气候和疾病环境的传教士，他们乘虚而入成功吸引民众转变信仰。到19世纪初期，浸礼会、卫礼会、长老会等清教教派已经成为当地主导性教会，北美南部信仰格局实现本土化。更多还原

【Abstract】 During 18^th and early 19^th Centuries,Anglican Church sent their clergymen from Britain to the south of North America,who had to face with great challenges of various diseases such as Yellow Fever,malaria and dysentery.These foreign missionaries had been tortured by serious illness and suffered to death in different parishes.Illness and death forced them to change air from their own parishes to other healthy areas such as interior uplands and inlands,Barbados,Bermuda and other Caribbean Islands,eventually Great Britain.The result is,clergy vacancy became so common in southern parishes in North America that a few surviving clergymen tried to satisfied the people’s religious and social needs unsuccessfully.So many people turned to Protestant denominations for help.Protestant sects especially the baptists,recruited their clergymen from North America who had adapted to the local climate and environment,thus attracting many persons to change their faith.Until early 19^th Century,Protestant denominations had become the leading churches which realized the nativization of religious faith in American South.更多还原
