British Guiana

By R. Hyder; C. Belgrave

Our work among the East Indians is becoming interesting, both in visiting and in meetings. In our visiting we have met some who are quite careless and indifferent about God’s plan of salvation; while, on the other hand, there are those who pay good attention to the story of Jesus and his love, and invite us to come to their homes, so that they may hear the sweet story again. Two women, after hearing of the beauties of the coming world, gave two cents each, as a gift to God, they said.

We have a torch, which we use in open-air meetings, as this is the only way at present whereby we can reach the people. They sit on the ground, and sometimes the voices of one or two join in the sweet songs we sing. As an interest is being awakened through the Word and power of God, and some are inquiring for truth, we are praying earnestly to God that he may open their spiritual vision, that they may come to a knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus, and also that means may be granted whereby we may be able to do a more effectual work among these dear people.
