Literature Entering Tibet

In the last letter from Brother F. A. Allum, at Chung-king, province of Szechuan, West China, bordering on Tibet, he says:—

“Recently we had an interesting interview with three Tibetan priests who had come to Chung-king on a pilgrimage. We were interested to know that we could converse with them freely in the Mandarin language, which they readily understood. They told us that there were many Tibetans who understand the Mandarin, so we gave them a generous supply of our literature, and they promised to give it to their friends on their return. What the results of this literature distribution will be we cannot say. So far as we know, this is the first time that Seventh-day Adventists have come in contact with this remarkable people.”

Let us pray that the way may soon open for missionaries to enter this interesting field.
