For the advancement of the gospel work in the East and the speedy preparation of workers among the Germans for our large cities, it was thought best, in counsel with the chairman of the Foreign Department of the General Conference, to establish a workers’ school in New York City. The object of this undertaking is to give to those of our German brethren and sisters who have a burden to work among their own nationality, a speedy and necessary preparation, both in practical and in theoretical lines. Men and women of good Christian experience are wanted, who are willing to give their lives to the work for the salvation of souls. Those who are under the age of twenty need not apply. The forenoon will be devoted to the study of the Bible, language, simple treatments, etc., and the afternoon to practical missionary work. Opportunity for Bible work and short talks will be given as providence may direct. Public lectures will be held in connection with the school. While the tuition will be free of charge, every student is required to pay his own expenses. Board and room will range from three to four dollars a week. Those desiring to board themselves will have perfect liberty to do so. The school will begin Monday, February 5, and continue until April 30, 1906.
Those desiring to attend, should send their application in their own handwriting with a recommendation from the church elder or minister at once. For further information, apply to O. E. Reinke, 128 West Ninetieth St., New York City, N. Y.
