Evangelistic Work in Chicago

The special attention of the denomination has of late years been directed to the evangelization of the heathen lands and to the large cities of the United States. In both of these great fields, encouraging success is attending the efforts put forth, but the opportunities are practically unlimited. So much so, and so urgent are they, that the workers are sometimes tempted to become discouraged with their limitations in contrast with their task. With the opening of the present season, the General Conference Committee has planned to assist the Northern Illinois Conference in an aggressive work in Chicago, by securing the services of Evangelist K. C. Russell, who has been joined by other evangelical workers. The General Conference will also furnish financial assistance to the extent of $3,500. It is expected that these provisions, with the blessing of the Lord, will result in greatly strengthening our work in this city. W. T. Knox.
