The “Bible Classes” in the Nyasa Mission

IN all our village schools the Bible is taught every day. Every Sabbath the villagers are assembled in the schoolhouse, and a simple Bible lesson is taught them. The teachers also go out to the near-by villages and tell the people about the love of Jesus—chikondi chache cha Yesu.
The result of all this Bible teaching is that little companies of those who believe in Jesus and desire baptism are formed at these schools. We call these small companies our “Bible classes.” It certainly is inspiring to stand before a class of over one hundred earnest young people at our head station, Malamulo, knowing that all these were ignorant of Bible principles but a short time ago.
The school at Ndeka, also, is especially good because so many of the women are in the class. This is the result of the work done by the wife of the native teacher, who is a fine woman, and has been teaching the women’s class in the day school. I wish that more of our village women would work for their friends.
The total membership of these Bible classes is 499. The Holy Spirit is working with our teachers, and helping them to win souls for Jesus. C. ROBINSON.
