Young People Support Missionary Work
It will be interesting to those who read Dr. J. M. Keichline’s report in the last Review to know that his work was made possible by the generosity of the Battle Creek (Mich.) Young People’s Society. Prior to his going to Egypt, they volunteered to place him in his chosen field, and support him there. Through liberal efforts, they were able to place in his hands at his departure, besides money for transportation, three hundred and fifty dollars for instruments, supplies, etc. After spending a year in the field, he writes that, according to agreement, they had paid him on an average ten dollars a week. Credit is due the faithful young people of Battle Creek. Young people elsewhere could do as well in proportion to their numbers, if definite plans were laid. We can well afford to sacrifice now, that the gospel may be quickly carried to earth’s remotest bounds. To-day is our opportunity.
