The Household of Faith

“THE household of faith” is to receive our first attention during the missionary campaign which is now on. During the camp-meeting season and the early fall an effort is to be made by all our people everywhere “to place the REVIEW AND HERALD in every Sabbath-keeping home.” This is the work to be done just now, and all should realize the importance of a vigorous effort.
The conference in which the largest number of its members have the REVIEW will be the conference most active in missionary operations, the conference in which a faithful tithe is paid, the conference which will most readily respond to calls for means to assist needy enterprises, and all of this because its members are kept wide-awake and thoroughly in touch with the progress of the message by the reading of the REVIEW.
It would not be in good taste for us to say this of the REVIEW were it not the uniform testimony of our conference officers and ministers throughout the field.
In view of this, our present duty is manifest. And really our efforts in the circulation of our church paper are of such importance that they should not be confined to a certain portion of a year, but should be kept up continuously.
Ministers and workers who visit churches and isolated members can not do better work than to see that the REVIEW goes to every family, as it will come to them week by week with its messages of warning and encouragement and instruction, thus helping forward and strengthening the work of the ministry.
From every standpoint, therefore, efforts to extend the REVIEW’s sphere of influence can but be helpful.
