The Missionary Acre

By William A. Spicer

WE have just sent out from the General Conference office the reading on the Missionary Acre plan, which was announced on this page last week. It is designed to be read Sabbath, April 16, and takes the place of our usual second Sabbath missionary letter this month, as it was thought best not to add to the number of readings sent to the churches. This is not an appeal for a Sabbath collection, but sets forth the plan adopted for meeting the old Battle Creek College obligations, and the reasons for remembering this plan at this time. It is brief, and the reading of it will take but a portion of the time allotted to the Sabbath service.
It has been sent to church elders, workers, and isolated believers. Any who have been missed may have a copy by addressing the General Conference. Isolated readers of the REVIEW will find the main part of the appeal in Sister White’s articles in the issue of Dec. 3, 1903. The reprint comes with special timeliness just now, as the planting season opens, and acres and gardens may be planned for. Pledge blanks have been sent with the reading. These, when filled out, should be returned to Prof. P. T. Magan, Berrien Springs, Mich.
W. A. SPICER, Secretary.
