The Home Run

The year 1909 is rapidly passing. Only three more weeks remain, when a new year will be ushered in. How many Seventh-day Adventists have done their full duty during 1909 in contributing to the support of foreign missions?
One State secretary writes that he wishes to know the last day of 1909 when money can reach the General Conference Office to be entered on the books for the calendar year. He says, “We purpose not simply to make our offering to foreign missions ten cents a week, but we are struggling to make it reach twenty cents a week.”
Both union and local conferences are throwing themselves with great vigor into the effort to raise money for foreign missions. Every Seventh-day Adventist who has not paid his full quota of ten cents a week for foreign missions, ought to endeavor to make up the deficit at the earliest possible date, so that the same can be passed through the books to be credited on the year 1909.
Shall not the remaining portion of 1909 witness the most vigorous campaign in behalf of foreign mission funds in the history of our people? May each one endeavor, with God’s help, to do his best.                                                                                                                        I. H. EVANS.
