One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollar Fund

For Special Work at Home and Abroad

The True Spirit of Giving

COULD our people read the letters accompanying the remittances to the Mission Board, for work in other lands, it would be a revelation to many, of the real spirit that characterizes those who believe in the third angel’s message.

To illustrate, we quote from a letter received November 4, as follows:—

“I am enclosing a post-office order for five dollars, to be sent to the brethren in Kingston, Jamaica, to assist in building their new church building that they are struggling so hard to complete by the first of the new year.

“You will be interested to know where this money came from. We have been called to lay away one of our little twin boys, and this money was given by the students and teachers of the academy for flowers. They were disappointed in getting them, and they asked me what should be done with the money. I immediately said, ‘We will send it to Kingston if all are willing.’ So we gladly send it, knowing it will bear fruit to all eternity, and flowers would soon fade.”
