Religious envoy's possession

Missionary's is the possessive form of missionary—a person sent to promote a religion in foreign lands.

It indicates something belonging to or associated with such a person: the missionary's zeal, the missionary's journal, the missionary's efforts among the indigenous population.

In missionary's position, it refers to the face-to-face sexual position supposedly advocated by Christian missionaries as proper.
