MISSION BOARD

By Mission Board

THAT any one church can do what any other church has done is demonstrated by the experience of one of our churches in Texas. The elder writes:—

“After noticing in the REVIEW that others had increased their offerings to missions by the use of the little envelopes, I decided to try it in our church, and am happy to report the following gratifying results: the last quarter we raised $13.08 for missions. For the six quarters previous the average had been only $3.95.”

Let other church elders give the plan a trial. It is the most simple way to increase your offerings to the needy fields. The whole secret is in the systematic plan. And when all have adopted it, our missionary enterprises in the needy fields will be increased at least threefold. When the message has reached every part of the world, we can expect the end. Can we not with courage throw ourselves into this work, when we see the end so near? The Mission Board would be glad to hear from other church elders who have been inspired to do more for the regions beyond. We will provide the envelopes in any quantities, free. Each church should have enough to supply every member every Sabbath.
