Jones, Eli Stanley
Jones, Eli Stanley (1884–1973). Christian missionary. Born in Maryland, USA, he was ordained Methodist minister and sent to work at the Lal Bagh English-speaking church in Lucknow. He adopted a travelling ministry, based on Sitapur, where he wrote the widely selling Christ of the Indian Road (1925). His commitment to Christianity ceasing to be an imported ‘European’ religion, and becoming Indian, issued especially in the Sal Tat ashram (āśrama). This was originally an annual event, but it and other ashrams became permanent. In 1964, he was awarded the Gandhi Peace Prize.
