Harvest Ingathering Loyalty
By T. E. Bowen
THERE is a loyalty to missions manifested by our people throughout the entire field that is truly inspiring. Although a depression is felt because of the war, the Harvest Ingathering campaign for missions is being pushed. From the Maritime Conference, the first to reach its portion of the $100,000 last year, its president, M. M. Hare, writes: “We have the Ingathering campaign well in hand. Our working aim for this field is the raising of $1,000, while our portion of the $100,000 is only $368.06. Last year we raised $900. We expect an even better showing this year.” Brother L. Johnson, president of the Western Washington Conference, writes: “Our territory has been divided into districts, and a minister placed over each to carry the fall campaign, first with the Signs Temperance number, and afterward with the Ingathering REVIEW. We had 17,750 Signs on hand and an equal number of the REVIEW Extra. We hope this will be a beginning for the Harvest Ingathering work.” The work is starting very encouragingly. Let us follow our Leader in this loving effort to reach souls, and we shall not only experience richly his blessing in our own hearts, but also see evidences of God's Spirit working upon the hearts of others. To serve with the Lord now is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon men. Taking the special REVIEW and going out in behalf of missions is one of the ways in which just now we may render efficient service for Christ.
