Central America

By A. J. Hetherington

COXEN HOLE, RUATAN.—Our hearts are cheered as we hear how the Lord is directing in the work, and is leading some of his people to enter mission fields. It is one of the sure evidences, to my mind, that the message will soon reach earth's remotest bounds. The Lord has certainly directed in the matter of the move of the General Conference offices out of Battle Creek. It encourages us who are at the outposts, to see how confidently those who are at the head of the work lean upon God for guidance in following out his directions. I am sure this will inspire confidence in all parts of the field. By no means must the forward move slacken.
Our general meeting was a success in many ways. The Lord came near, and several took their stand for the truth. We need more ministerial help in this field, to relieve Brother Goodrich of part of his burdens. The calls for the message come from every quarter, and he can not begin to answer them, although he labors faithfully, joyfully, and uncomplainingly.
The battle here is onward. The Lord is good, and we have much for which to be thankful. The openings for medical missionary work seem to be quite favorable in many ways.
