Missionaries Meet in Washington

LAST week, Wednesday, a happy coincidence took place at the Mission Board office. Brother F. G. Lane, who, with his wife and little girl, had just reached Washington on their way from southern New England to Cuba, where Brother Lane goes to take the superintendency of the Cuban Mission, had called to make arrangements for their journey. While Brother Lane was in our office, Brother S. A. Oberg called, on his way from Venezuela to join his family in the West, from whom he has been separated nearly a year. Brother and Sister Oberg followed Brother and Sister Lane in carrying on the work in Venezuela. Neither Brother Lane nor Brother Oberg knew that the other was in Washington. Needless to say, a hearty visit in English and Spanish ensued, thoroughly appreciated by both these Venezuelan missionaries.

BROTHER JOHN L. BROWN writes from the newly entered field of Salvador: “Our work here is very interesting. The people are still inquiring about our work, and we find some who are always interested in the truths of the Bible. One thing that has encouraged us is the fact that in almost every case the persons who have united with us in commandment keeping had been praying for more light and that God would send some one here to teach Bible truth.”
