THE West Nordic Union embraces the territories of Denmark, Norway, the Faeroe Islands and Greenland. It is always a pleasure to visit this interesting field.

Just recently we have concluded union session meetings followed by workers' meetings at our beautifully appointed Norwegian Junior College on the edge of one of Norway's lovely fjords.

Theodore Carcich and A. C. Fearing from the General Conference were especially appreciated as they brought fresh inspiration to the working force. Other visitors were K. F. Wright, division evangelist, J. F. Coltheart, division Ministerial secretary, and B. B. Beach, division educational secretary.

A wonderful spirit of dedication was evident among the workers, and there was a great determination to push ahead with zeal and courage to see greater triumphs for the gospel in these Nordic lands.

Send Me an Able Man

Send me now therefore a man cunning to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and that can skill to grave with the cunning men that are with me in Judah and Jerusalem, whom David my father did provide (2 Chron. 2:7). . .

Meekness

Mrs. White comments on this statement: Patience and gentleness under wrong were not characteristics prized by the heathen or by the Jews. The statement made by Moses under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, that he was the meekest man upon the earth, would not have been regarded by the people of his time as a commendation; it would rather have excited pity or contempt. --The Mount of Blessings, p. 14.

Tail on the Donkey or Entering Wedge?

WATCHING blindfolded children trying to pin the tail in the appropriate place on a cardboard donkey can be rather amusing, but watching a befuddled evangelist trying to find the right place to pin the temperance message in his series, before his candidates are ready for baptism, is not so funny. . .

The Pastor: Quarterback or Coach?

WE ARE in the year of the laymen. Special emphasis has been given to witnessing by the laity. What a grand idea! But has it been just a slogan or is it the plan of God?

Field School in Austria

About fifty ministers from the Swiss, Austrian., and South German unions met May 16-26 for a field school at the "Rupertshof" at Abtenau, Austria. . .

Gathered "Into a Place"

"Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth!" Our ministry and laity alike subscribe wholeheartedly to Thoreau's statement. We thank God that He has preserved His holy Word, the very embodiment of truth for His people in these last days of earth's history. We often speak of new converts to the faith as having "embraced the truth."

Speak Out!

A PERSON asked to speak in public usu ally gives careful thought as to what he will say. Often overlooked, however, is the importance of how it will be said. No matter how careful the preparation has been, how highly polished every sentence, if the congregation fails to hear or understand the message, it amounts to less than nothing. Not only do they miss what is said, but often become irritated because of it. . .

Facing the Risks of Revival

NOTHING would please the Lord more or stir up the devil faster than a genuine revival. Nothing would more quickly prepare the church for its modern Pentecost and the finishing of the work or more surely thin the ranks, threaten our finances, and invite renewed persecution than an all-out, whole-souled revival. . .

Where is Elijah

"And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven" (John 3:13). . .Then where is Elijah?

Choosing the Nominating Committee

THE order of business during the last of September and the first of October is the selection and work of the nominating committee. If ever the pastor needs practical know-how and patience, it is during this function of the church. . .
