Show Suggestions to Volunteers. Remember every day at the "noon watch" to pray for the evangelization of the world. Do some systematic private Bible study along missionary lines. For suggestions see Prof. White's article in The Student Volunteer, October, 1893 Also, see White's Ten Lessons on the Bible and Missions, and Wilder's The Bible and Foreign Missions. Plan to read at least three missionary books during this year, such as: Do Not Say, by Horsburgh; The Crisis of Missions, by Pierson; The Personal lAfe of David Livingstone, by Blaikie; Report of the First International Convention of the S. V. M.; Alexander M. Mackay, by his sister; Story of the China Inland Mission, by Miss Guinness; John K. Mackenzie, by Mrs. Bryson; etc. If you do not get The Student Volunteer, subscribe for it at once and read it. Read The Missionary Review. Attend the Volunteer Band meetings regularly. Preserve all the good things that you hear and read on foreign missions in a "Fact Record Book" (price 67 cents), and use these facts at every opportunity. Try to interest your fellow students in foreign missions. Be ready to co-operate with any of the Committees of the Band when they call on you for help. Be ready to speak on foreign missions whenever opportunity is offered. The Secretaries of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions will be glad to hear from you at any time. Address: S. V. M. F. M.; 80 Institute Place, Chicago, 111. |
