A Word of Thanks From the Peruvian Mission

By A. N. Allen

A. N. ALLEN

I WISH to express our sincere gratitude for the hearty response from many of our institutions throughout the world to our request some time ago for stereopticon slides. Missionary work means many things to those not informed. Some believe missionaries to be "wandering Jews," tramps sponging a living, responsible to nobody. Others accuse us of working only among other Protestant denominations, and neglecting entirely the heathen. Some, unfortunately, believe our work is a scheme to make money.

A good variety of slides illustrating our work under all circumstances, favorable and adverse, helps wonderfully in presenting the progress and standing of the great message we are giving to the world.

I also wish to thank those who have shown their interest in our Indian mission in the south of Peru. God has blessed this work beyond our greatest hopes, and there are probably few places where the money spent produces more in actual results. Those who desire a part in this work, which God is blessing so abundantly, are invited to send their offerings to our treasury at Washington, D. C.
