Missionary Progress Around the World

SIXTY-ONE dollars was the Ingathering Harvest at Shanghai, China, as the result of a few days’ work with the Missions REVIEW.
ONE hundred years ago last October 27, the first convert from heathenism in China was baptized by Morrison. Wonderful changes in the vast Chinese nation have been brought about during this century.
As the result of tent meetings in Japan, one strong church is reported raised up, while other new believers will unite with churches already established. Twenty-five had been baptized, with others to go forward before the close of the year.
THE South Caribbean Conference reports the baptism of twenty-three believers recently, with meetings in progress in several places, where fruit is expected. Everywhere there seems to be an awakening to hear the word of God, and the third angel’s message alone furnishes the answer to the many questions raised in the minds of the people at this time over conditions now existing in this world.
IN a letter from Brother Daniells, written the day of the opening of the workers’ institute in Calcutta, December 18, we learn that he had visited all the missions in India proper except Garhwal. At the close of the council, in company with Professor Salisbury, he was to visit Burma, then they were to go on together to Singapore, where he expected to meet Brother Porter, also Brother Fulton from Australia, to counsel regarding the publishing work in the East. After visiting Malaysia, the Philippines, and some missions in China, he was to attend the Asiatic Division Conference to be held in Shanghai, May 1–16. Brother and Sister Daniells were both well and enjoying their work.
W. H. LEWIS writes from the Gold Coast, West Africa, that his wife and children, who have been in the Canary Islands, have now joined him. They are located two hundred miles from the sea-coast and twenty-five miles from the post office and railroad, “among a strange people with a strange language shrouded in heathenism.” They desire our prayers that they may soon acquire the language, and that the light of truth may soon pierce the darkness.
