Mexico

By Mrs. M. C. McCulloch

TAMPICO.—I went up to Mexico City last month, to attend the meeting, and after almost four years' absence, I was very much encouraged to see the progress of the work. From all sides comes the cry for more helpers. Right here in Tampico our need is as great as anywhere else.

My daughter, on account of illness, was obliged to give up her work, and go into the country. Her father went with her, and I am keeping up the shipwork here as well as I can, but it is impossible for me to open a mission room alone.

There seems to be an opening in this place for a doctor and nurse, to do self-supporting work. There is also great demand for an American restaurant and I think a Bible worker could support herself, by giving lessons in English part of the time, while doing house-to-house work. I could have twice the amount of work that I can do. Of course, if a worker could be sent here and supported, the work would go much faster.

Will not some of our good brethren and sisters feel it their duty to come down here to help us give the last message of warning to the people of Mexico? We are hoping and praying for help. I should not advise those without any means to come, as it is hard to get a start, and living is expensive; but those who have a little that they want to use in spreading the truth, could surely use it in no better way. If any feel inclined to "come over and help us," I shall be glad to give any help or information I can.

One brother, who came here last spring, bought a small tract of land in the country, and is doing all he can, by living the truth, to spread it among his neighbors. There is room for many more such. Land is cheap, crops are sure and there is good market. The climate is better than in southern Texas.

Let us all work and pray as never before for the finishing of the work in righteousness.

MRS. M. C. McCULLOCH.
