Foreign Mission Band of Walla Walla College

IN the fall of 1907, a foreign mission band of twenty-four members was organized. The individuals starting this work had belonged to the Missionary Volunteer Society, and to give more direct consideration to the subjects related to missionary work in foreign fields, the organization was effected. “It is my purpose, if God permits, to become a foreign missionary,” is the declared determination of each member.
The Lord is blessing the work. His presence is near in the meetings, which are held every two weeks. A public program is rendered once in three months. The membership has increased to one hundred forty-one. Nineteen are either in foreign fields or under appointment.
During the time of preparation for the broader fields, active work is carried on with the foreign population in the immediate vicinity. Several nationalities are accessible and good work is being done.
