Henry Venn (10 February 1796 – 13 January 1873) was an Anglican clergyman who is recognised as one of the foremost Protestant missions strategists of the nineteenth century. He was an outstanding administrator who served as honorary secretary of the Church Missionary Society from 1841 to 1873. He was also a campaigner, in the tradition of the Clapham Sect, who frequently lobbied the British Parliament on social issues of his day, notably on ensuring the total eradication of the Atlantic slave trade by retaining the West African Squadron of the Royal Navy. He expounded the basic principles of indigenous Christian missions: these were much later made widespread by the Lausanne Congress of 1974.

  • Henry Venn (10 février 1796 - 13 janvier 1873) est un pasteur anglican reconnu comme l'un des plus grands stratèges missionnaires protestants du XIXe siècle. Il est un administrateur exceptionnel qui est secrétaire honoraire de la Church Mission Society de 1841 à 1873. Il est également un militant, dans la tradition de la Secte de Clapham, qui fait fréquemment pression sur le Parlement britannique sur les questions sociales de son époque, notamment pour assurer l'éradication totale de la traite négrière atlantique en conservant l'escadron ouest-africain de la Royal Navy . Il expose les principes de base des missions chrétiennes indigènes : celles-ci seront généralisées bien plus tard par le Congrès de Lausanne de 1974. (fr)
  • Henry Venn auch Henry Venn Junior (* 10. Februar 1796 in Clapham; † 13. Januar 1873 in ) war ein englischer Theologe und Generalsekretär der Church Missionary Society. Venn, ein Sohn des Pfarrers John Venn, gilt als einer der bekanntesten anglikanischen Geistlichen seiner Zeit und war Mitglied in zwei königlichen Kommissionen. Er nahm eine kritische Position zur Sklaverei ein und gilt als einer der Hauptmitverantwortlichen für die Abschaffung des transatlantischen Sklavenhandels. Venn holte junge Afrikaner nach England, um ihnen dort zu ermöglichen, ein Handwerk zu erlernen, wie etwa die Verarbeitung von Baumwolle, um so nach ihrer Rückkehr zum Wohle ihres Kontinents beizutragen.
