Another Company of Missionaries

DURING the past few weeks a great wave of blessing has swept over many of our camp grounds, as the needs of foreign fields have been presented to the people. Such a response has never before been witnessed in this denomination.
At the Nebraska camp meeting three hundred earnest, devoted young people deliberately, and without excitement, consecrated themselves to the missionary work in home and foreign fields. From among the many volunteers in several States a company of devoted young people has been made up for England and Europe. Some are to enter the canvassing work in England, others will attend the Bible school in London, and enter the canvassing, or Bible work later.
The next company to be sent will sail in October, and we need the money to pay their traveling expenses. The cost will be from seventy-five dollars to one hundred and twenty-five dollars for each person. We need at least twelve hundred dollars right away to meet these expenses, and we urgently request our lay brethren and our conferences to help us what they can.
We suggest that conferences which are able to do so send us from twenty-five to one hundred dollars each toward this account. Schools and churches might unite in making up a contribution, and there are hundreds of our people who will doubtless esteem it a privilege to help send these missionaries to needy fields.
God is working with his people, and turning their hearts toward distant lands. Strong young men and women are consecrating their lives to the service. Who will help us by contributing toward their traveling expenses?
Send all contributions to the Mission Board, 267 West Main St., Battle Creek, Mich.
