Robert R. Todd entered the Faith Mission as a Pilgrim on July 12,
1888 and Miss Jeanie M. Mitchell entered on Aug. 28, 1888.
They married in 1895.

The Todds resigned from Faith Mission in 1898 and began
an independent mission known as "Todd's Mission," which
may have been associated with the newly formed Irish
Christian Workers Union later known as the Alliance of
Irish Christian and Missionary Workers Union.

For three years, from 1898 to 1901, they worked out of
Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford in the South of Ireland.

In 1901, just three years after the start-up of Todd's
Mission, and one year after the FIRST general convention
held by William Irvine at Rathmolyon, Mr. Todd accepted a position
with the South American Evangelical Mission and abandoned
"Todd's Mission."

Some of his workers became workers in William Irvine's movement.
