Encouraging Reports from India and Russia

By Editor

The interesting and very encouraging report of the India Union Mission conference, written by Elder J. L. Shaw, which appears in this issue, will be read with pleasure by all our brethren. One accomplishment alone, recorded in that report, more than compensates for all that has been done by us for India. In fourteen village schools and four boarding-schools eight hundred fifty-eight native pupils are under our religious training. This is only one of the interesting items contained in the report.
Elder J. T. Boettcher, president of the Russian Union Conference, writes while going by train from Tiflis to Baku, Russia:— “In Tiflis we had called in the church elders from the different parts of this field. The Lord protected us from any disturbance. All felt refreshed through God’s truth. Although the meeting was small, we had five different languages spoken. The truth finds its way to the hearts of even those who live among the large mountains.”
