The Missionary Acre Fund
By Percy T. Magan
ALREADY responses are beginning to come in in answer to the appeals for help on the Missionary Acre Fund, which is to go toward the securing of the Battle Creek College buildings for our Medical Missionary College. It has been stated several times in the REVIEW that those who wish to pledge to this good cause should send their pledges to the Financial Secretary, Percy T. Magan, Berrien Springs, Mich. The first letter received at the office of the Financial Secretary was one from Mrs. Pebworth, and the second was from E. E. Coulson. These letters are both given below. The Lord has certainly moved upon the hearts of this sister and brother. When a sister having all her own housekeeping to do, a cow and a calf to attend to, a garden to work, and a family of five to care for, feels that she can put in a whole acre of peas for this fund, we believe that many of our wealthier brethren could do from five to ten times as much, and do it much easier than this good sister can do what she does. Brother Coulson’s gift is also an interesting one. He is a dentist, and spends most of his time at his dental work. He wishes to help the Missionary Acre Fund. We believe that hundreds and thousands of pledges will be received in the near future.
