Missionary Statistics

"IN New York City are found over 3,000 physicians, to minister to 1,900,000 persons, while in the foreign field for 1,000,000,000 there are only about 350 medical missionaries, or one to 3,000,000—that is, one to the combined population of New York, Brooklyn, and Jersey City."
"OF the 1,670 persons received into Christian fellowship in the Swatow Mission of the Baptist Missionary Union nearly one-half were baptized after they were fifty years of age, and no less than 361 after they were sixty."
