Through the pages of THE MINISTRY we are coming to all our workers in the North American Division with a definite request to make the offering to be taken Sabbath, August 33, an unusually large one. This offering is to go to the College of Medical Evangelists to help in their operating expense. We confidently believe that the medical college was established by the Lord. Through the years God has greatly blessed the school. Men and women have been trained along medical lines, and are doing an excellent work in all parts of the world field.
We have been told by the messenger of the Lord that our medical work will go on to the time of the end. This line of work is an entering wedge for the proclamation of the gospel. Missionary work along medical lines is of inestimable value to the Advent Movement. It is part of the work that God wishes carried to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
Like our other colleges, the medical school is in need of financial support. The General Conference Committee has therefore set aside Sabbath, August 13, as a day in which all our churches in the North American Division are invited to bring a most liberal offering to help the College of Medical Evangelists carry on its work.
W. B. Ochs. [Acting Vice-President, North American Division.]
