Glendale (Cal.) Sanitarium

By J. J. Wessels

The workers at the Glendale Sanitarium have recently had the pleasure of a visit from Brother P. J. Laird and wife, who have been laboring in China for some years. As these faithful missionaries told of their experiences among the Chinese millions, the hearts of all their hearers were made tender. Several of the workers expressed a desire to labor in some of the mission fields. There are about fifty young people in training at this institution, and without exception every one is desirous of being fitted for some useful place in the Master's cause. In fact, the sanitarium faculty does not admit any one into the training-school who does not desire to be fitted for definite missionary work at home or abroad. The interest manifested by our workers in what Brother Laird has to say, as well as their faithfulness in the discharge of their every-day duties, shows that they possess true missionary zeal, and are desirous of fitting themselves for places in this noble cause. We hope that many will find places in the ranks of mission workers either at home or abroad.

We are now beginning a work for the poor and sick of Los Angeles; and although only a beginning has been made, good results are already seen as a consequence. We feel that the Lord is with the consecrated workers as they go into the highways and hedges, assisting the poor and needy, and presenting the truth. The “Ministry of Healing” campaign is also being launched, and all are taking hold of this work. There is room in this training-school for a few more consecrated young people; but only those who are desirous of receiving a training to become true missionaries need apply.
