Missionaries among Them Facing Death — Their Courage and Christian Heroism
By J. E. FULTON
Special Australian Correspondent
MANY falsely allege that Seventh-day Adventists do not go to difficult fields, but put forth all their efforts in civilized lands. Those who make such assertions, forget or else ignore the fact that Seventh-day Adventists operate in ninety different countries in all parts of the globe; that they have missionaries among the heathen tribes in darkest Africa; in the interior of China, where intestine strife and trouble reign; in discordant South America, Central America, and Mexico; and in cannibal Melanesia and Papua.
Operating now in ninety different countries and in about as many languages, they are rapidly sending their missionaries to every part of the world, having sent 157 new recruits out in 1913.
The facsimile article in the preceding column is from the Age, one of Australia’s most prominent dailies, and should be sufficient outside evidence that Seventh-day Adventists are in the thick of the fight.
