In researching this story, I came across other groundbreaking work promoting Sunday Schools. On August 13th 1736, the Society Promoting Sunday Schools was founded and between 1736 and 1841 had one and a quarter million students enrolled.
The Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge (S.P.C.K) founded six schools in London in 1700, by 1704 had 54 schools with 3,000 students, by 1712, 117 schools and 5,000 students. By 1741 they had 2,000 schools. These and other magnificent efforts were happening in England under the hand of God to promote schools and Sunday schools for children.
