“Sown in the darkness or sown in the light,
Sown in our weakness or sown in our might; Gathered in time or eternity,
Sure, ah! sure will the harvest be.”
When Jose Ignacio was a young man seventeen years of age, an Adventist sister taught him the way to Jesus. He did not then accept the message, although he knew it to be true.
Finally he contracted the dread disease leprosy, and two years ago was sent to the public leper asylum at Mahaica, British Guiana. There, in his affliction, he turned to God. He then began to tell his fellow sufferers of the Saviour, and soon one after another joined him, until we have been happy to see thirteen of these poor sufferers baptized beneath the waters of Mahaica Creek where it passes the grounds of the asylum on its way to the sea. “I feel to myself that I am a new man in Christ Jesus,” was Ignacio’s testimony one after having “put on Christ” in this sacred ordinance.
