Needy Fields.

By T. S. Whitelock

Writing from San Diego, Cal., Brother T. S. Whitelock says: “Down the bay, south, only a few miles, is National City, while a little further on is Chulavista and Otay; but very little has been done in these places, or is being done at the present. Just across the line into Mexico we find Tia Juana, which is quite a center for tourists, and would no doubt prove a fruitful field for one commanding the Spanish language. Across the bay from San Diego is Coronado, where thousands come every year to spend the hot summer months. At present, about one thousand are camping on the beach, besides the large number occupying rooms in the hotel. All these places afford an opening for many earnest workers. In all these fields we need prevailers with God, those who know Jesus for themselves in a way that will enable them to tell others of the power of God to save sinners. Besides workers, we need a branch sanitarium, and also a hygienic restaurant. We hope something may be done in the near future to establish a health branch in this southern field.”
