Work for Catholics in Protestant Lands

M.I. Fayard

Our proportionately small Roman Catholic accessions in Protestant lands has led us to ask a representative of Catholic South America, where a large number of converts are an actuality, to suggest possible reasons for these two situations. His observations are here presented for study, as in some Protestant lands over­seas it has already been deemed necessary to make certain changes in methods.—Editor.
