Brief Mission News from Several Fields
BROTHER PHILLIP GIDDINGS has recently spent a week among the Indians up the Canje Creek, British Guiana, and reports three added to the church by baptism. Others are deeply interested. The work began on the new church in Georgetown, British Guiana, November 2. They are laboring hard to complete the building by the middle of December. SIXTEEN are enrolled in the Bible school which just opened in Paris. As many more have had to be refused, owing to the lack of accommodations. The students spend a portion of the day canvassing for books and papers; this work will soon be followed by general meetings. THE work in Brazil has recently suffered loss through the death of the colporteur in Rio de Janeiro. As yet no one has been found to take his place. Brother Stauffer writes: “A city of over six hundred thousand inhabitants needs scores of workers; but how glad we would be for one consecrated young man to take our fallen brother’s place, and lead out in real missionary work!”
