MISSIONARY ENVELOPES

We are placing an order for another lot of our usual Missionary Envelopes, and make the proposition that any who can use 5000, can have them at less than half the usual cost,—with their card printed at the corner. This is to induce a very general circulation of this tract envelope. Order at once.

THE WORK AT HOME

The colporteur work of late is encouraging. The older colporteurs are succeeding better than for some time; and several new ones have started recently. We are at present giving special attention to New England and the Pacific and Southern states. “Pray ye the Lord of the harvest that he will send forth more laborers into his vineyard.”

The Lord seems willing to make use of every modern invention for spreading the truth. Brother and Sister Bell who had hoped ere this to be in the colporteur work and who to this end have been trying, but without success, to sell their prune ranch on the Pacific coast, concluded that they must serve in some manner and at once. Bro. Bell assured us that he, by God’s grace, possessed the eight qualifications mentioned in the Oct. 15, ’94 TOWER, and that he continually strives to abound in those graces of the spirit. He received of the Society a Letter of Introduction, and at once began to visit and, so far as possible, to help the Church in the vicinity of his own home. On Christmas last he and his wife received bicycles as presents from their relatives, and they at once concluded that these should be made to serve the truth also. They have extended the range of their ministry and when last heard from were 300 miles from home encouraging the Lord’s people and being encouraged by them. Thus the bicycle has been yoked in as a servant to the “good tidings of great joy.”

Several brethren with Letters of Introduction are doing good service, some giving spare time from their business as commercial travelers, some from stores, etc., and Bro. McPhail giving his entire time. Letters received show that the Lord’s flock is being refreshed by these agencies. We here remark that brethren and sisters desirous of symbolizing their consecration, the immersion of their wills into the will of Christ, by water immersion, can be served by any of these Brethren when they come your way.

Let the love and sympathy and prayers of God’s people everywhere embrace and support these dear co-laborers; and forget not those of less favorable opportunities who are not ashamed of the Lord and his Word, but daily confess the truth, as they can,—by their means, their words, their example and by tracts, letters, etc.

PROGRESS OF THE WORK ABROAD

Brother Joseph Winter has for some time been at work colporteuring MILLENNIAL DAWN amongst people of his own nation—Denmark. He is meeting with fair success and is now much encouraged by one of his converts joining him in colporteuring. May the Lord continue to bless and use them.

Brother and Sister Westall have just started for England to engage in the “harvest” work there—colporteuring MILLENNIAL DAWN. A great work should be possible in Great Britain, and for some time we have been watching to see whom the Lord would esteem worthy, putting them into the work. (1 Tim. 1:12.) The Tract Society sends these two forth with hope-prayers that they may make full proof of their ministry to the praise of his glory who hath called us out of darkness into his marvelous light. May they be faithful and be greatly blessed.

Brother Oleszynski, a Polander who received the truth into a good and honest heart some three years ago, has gone to his native land to search out consecrated ones to preach to them the grand gospel of ransom, restitution and the high calling. He has much of the spirit of the truth, and in the day of rejoicing will bring his “sheaves” with him.
