Josef Mässrur (born Ghäsim Khan) (also sometimes spelled Josef Messrur〔In Tibet and Chinese Turkestan: Being the Record of Three Years' Exploration By Henry Hugh Peter Deasy pg. 284〕) (1 ) was a Christian Persian missionary to Chinese Turkestan with the Mission Union of Sweden. Josef was born in Tehran, Persia, of Persian parents. He studied medicine and French from a French doctor in Tehran. Afterwards, he set up an independent practice. While he was practising as a doctor a Lutheran Swedish missionary gave him a New Testament, and Josef made the decision to give his life to Jesus. He was baptised and took the name Josef. In 1894 he joined the Mission Union of Sweden, and went to Xinjiang with Anna Nystrom to operate within the Covenant Church Östturkestanmission. On 5 May 1895, after arriving in Kashgar, he married Anna Nyström, whom he had met in Persia. They then worked in Yarkand,where they founded the Mission League's mission station. They built an hospital. Joseph Mässror trained to be a dentist. In 1900 they travelled home to Sweden and Persia. In 1901 they went to Persia, an area where the Swedish Mission Covenant really had no mission. They were not officially missionaries of the Swedish Missionary Society, but Anna had a small contribution until 1908, when it was withdrawn. They never returned to Chinese Turkestan, but worked in Rasht, and Tehran till his death. He died on March 31, 1913. Anna Nystrom Mässror returned to Stockholm, Sweden on 15 December 1913. Anna Nyström Mässror was so sick that when she arrived she was hospitalized. She died in 1913. ==Bibliography== *J. Lundahl (editor), På obanade stigar: Tjugofem år i Ost-Turkestan.
