Catholic Hearts Hearing and Rejoicing

From Chile F. H. Westphal writes:—

“The message is progressing in our field, and devout Catholics are accepting it. A sister who for years has been a guardian of nuns has taken her stand for the truth; and another sister who has been a nun several years expects soon to be baptized. A man who was clearing fifty to two hundred pesos daily by manufacturing liquors, embraced the truth, and is now taking it to others. He seems happy and contented when selling our books and papers.”

From Lima, Peru, A. N. Allen reports:—

“Last week I made a trip back into the mountains into one of the valleys that had never been visited by a Protestant missionary before, and found that as the result of reading our paper, the Señales, which had found its way there, nearly thirty adults were rejoicing in their first love, and were meeting on the Sabbath. Nearly all are owners of small farms, and can read, and seem much more intelligent than many we find in the cities.”

Of the need of earnest gospel workers just now, one of our workers in South America writes:—

“The upper class and the young men from colleges are seeing the fallacy of the Roman doctrine, and are throwing off its yoke; but instead of accepting the Protestant religion, they are becoming infidels, being without any religion at all. Many have a very vague idea of Protestantism. Now, as these people are without a religion, what is our duty? Is it not to offer them something worth while?”
