Mission Notes

BRETHREN, go! The world is waiting For the coming of our King. Be it yours to spread the story Of his shame! and then his glory, Till the whole creation sing.
“THE Lord God which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him.” Isa. 56:8.
“BEHOLD, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim.” Isa. 49:12.
No countries surpass the South American continent, Central America, and Mexico in the excessive use of intoxicants.
THE Sabbath-keepers at Grand Rivière, Hayti, number between twenty-five and thirty. There are eight at Cape Haytien.
A RECENT letter from Elder J. N. Anderson, of Canton, China, tells of the baptism of five young men in the month of June.
WE have one Protestant Christian to each five persons; in the foreign field there is one Protestant Christian to each 1,566 persons.
SAID a Chinese convert, “You may take my house, you may take my land, you may take my life, if you will; but I will never give up Christ.”
THE demand for opium in China hardly existed one hundred and fifty years ago; to-day China consumes nearly five hundred thousand chests annually.
FROM San Luis Potosi, Mexico, Elder G. M. Brown reports: “Last Sabbath four were baptized at Mexico City, all of whom were Mexicans. Brother Harzman is now there, canvassing and helping. We expect that a good work will be done.”
ELDER C. A. HANSEN, of Bombay, India, has just recovered from a very severe attack of measles. Of the work in India, he says: “From all appearances, the message is fast closing up, and only a little while longer will they listen to our pleas. Pray for us, that we may prosper in spreading the truth.”
FROM Kulangsu, Amoy, China, Brother W. C. Hankins writes: “God is leading in the work here, and it is moving forward slowly but surely. I wish that every province in China had as much of a beginning as we have here. God has worked especially for us. Two of our young workers started for a trip into the country to-day. They will preach from village to village. Brother R. A. Caldwell is with us now for a few days. He has been doing very well with his canvassing.”
