Summary/Abstract: Dr. Jenő Horváth was the only lecturer in the 20th century appointed specifically to teach foreign missions at what is now the Protestant Theological Institute of Kolozsvár (Cluj). Drawing on material from Református Szemle and other contemporary publications, this article outlines the trajectory of his ministry, as well as the growth of the wider foreign mission support network within the Transylvanian Reformed Church during the interwar period. The article also includes a brief examination of Horváth’s understanding of what foreign missionary work should involve.
