The Work in Colombia

By I. G. Knight

Colombia

Bocas del Toro.—We arrived at Bocas del Toro, Friday, the 6th, and were met by Brother Brooks and the rest of the company, with a very hearty welcome.

Having been here so short a time, it is impossible fully to portray this field and its needs. Yet some of its needs stand out so plainly that it is only necessary to be here to see them. In the first place, one of the great needs of this country, in connection with the work, recognized not only by us, but also by those who have been here before us, is medical workers. My wife is a nurse. She is already being called out to care for the sick.

The captain of a boat from St. Andrews Island brought us word from Brother Smith. The work is onward there. We shall visit him as soon as convenient. We find our time all taken up, and we enjoy the work. The third angel's message is just the same in its results here as in America, bringing out a people earnest and full of the Spirit.
