The Protestant missionaries who, progressed with methods such as education, philanthropy, health services brought together political and economic interests with religious interests in the Ottoman lands. After they could not achieve the success what they expected among the Greeks, as a new method they opened the Smyrna Rest in Izmir in the 1880s. To understand the renewed Protestant Greek mission through the place called Smyrna Rest was aimed. The reactions of the Orthodox Church and the Ottoman administration against this new method were questioned. Ottoman and British archive documents, traveler and missionary narratives, the Greek Evangelical Society reports were evaluated.
