Need for Foreign Missionaries

Bishop Thoburn, writing of the need of the Methodist Church for re-enforcements in the foreign field, says: “If asked for an estimate of the men needed, I should say that we should enlist at least two hundred and fifty missionaries within the next twelve months. Do not be startled in that this number seems large. If you had the view which I possess of the actual extent and the imperative demands of the work, you would wonder at my using so small a number as two hundred and fifty. I feel quite sure that if this large re-enforcement should be sent abroad, it would not at all suffice to meet the present demand.”
