s p THE SPIRIT THE WO RD Editorial Dedicated to the cause of Christ. How wonderful it is as young men and women to be able to say, I have dedicated my life to Christ.” Many people have asked, ' Why do you go to Bible School?” “What is the purpose?” If is good for us to stop and analyze our motives. What is it in our faith that will bring us from Africa, Israel, Europe, U.S.A., and from the far corners of Canada to study the Word of God? Many have left prominent positions and have forsaken all their own ambitions and desires to study for three years, and have left the future in the hands of God. When we read Isaiah’s prophetic picture, and the historical account of the crucifixion as recorded in the Gospels, we see all that Christ has done for us. How He left His home in glory and became man to be stricken, smitten of God and afflicted.” “For He hath made Him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.” We see from such portions as Romans Three how utterly sinful man is and that his heart is “desperately wicked.” It was for this man that the Son of God gave up all, and gave Himself. Can we as Christian young people give any less to the service of this Christ who can use only a dedicated life—only a life that is empty of self and filled with Christ can be used as an effective witness for Him. For such a One who has done so much for us, can we give anything less than a yielded and consecrated life? Because of this dedication, we have laboured together and prepared this Book, to share with you the goodness of God to us here at F.G.B.I. LOIS STORTRO Editor Having been taught the Holy Scriptures from childhood, the date of my conversion cannot be specifically stated. I received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit at Trossachs at the age of eleven. My early ministry was with Arthur Pritchard, Bro. A. H. Gillett and my mother and father in Tribune, Colgate and surrounding towns in Saskatchewan. I have pastored at Moose Jaw, Weyburn, Manor, Car¬ lyle and since 1941 have been pastor of the Eston Full Gospel Assembly. In 1944, the Full Gospel Bible In¬ stitute was born. At that time I was invited to become the principal of the Institute. Being pastor of an assembly and principal of the school has not been an easy task, but the fruit -of such labour has been very gratifying. Like Paul, I can say that my Bible School family has been and is my joy and crown. In 1955, the Alumni enabled me to go on a missionary tour, visiting twenty countries in Europe, Africa, the Holy Land and other Middle East countries. Faculty 2 Timothy 2:2 “The things that thou hast heard—commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others” I do not know when I was saved, but no one could tell me that I ' m not saved! I was raised by Christian par¬ ents and taught the scriptures from childhood. I preached my first sermon in 1938. Two years later I attended the Queen City Bible School in Regina, where I received a foundation for Bible Study that has helped me so much. For twelve years I was pastor in Pangman, Sask., and district. If hu¬ man credit is due to any, it is to those who prayed and encouraged me when I was young, incapable and inexperienced. Touring the Holy Land” was a great highlight of my life. It made Bible Geography and History live. I have had the joy of teaching at F.G.B.I. since it began, and if my ministry has been a blessing to any, I can only say “thank God. He uses the things that are not, to bring to naught things that are. Vice-Principal LORNE O. PRITCHARD Fifteen years a teacher in F.G.B.I. It seems hard to believe years have slipped by so quickly. Saved as a boy of twelve in Chil¬ dren ' s Meetings in Saskatoon through the invitation of a younger than I. the joys of redemption became mine. I can still see our Young People’s meetings, street meetings and rural school-house services with their bless¬ ings and strengthening in Grace and Truth. Faithful pastors and old fash¬ ioned Camp Meetings with the Word and the Spirit predominating, crowd into joyful memory. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the yielding of my life to His service were high marks of early youth. Then into full time service in Northern Alberta, studying the Word by correspondence, giving it forth in rustic and pioneering surroundings for twelve years. Then Bible School—more study at Bible College in Seattle in Summer School—music at Winnona. Indiana. How good the Lord has been! Dean ALBERT D. MARSHALL Faculty Hebrews 13:7 “They watch for your souls, as they that must give account . . As a small child attending a coun¬ try Sunday School. I met the Lord as my Saviour. When attending The Full Gospel Bible Institute in 1945 God gave me the longed for Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Returning to F.G.B.I. in 1949 as a student, I graduated with the class of 1952. My first pastorate was at Radville, Sask., where we laboured for three years. It was while pastoring at Craig- myle, Alberta, the invitation to teach at F.G.B.I. was accepted, with the feeling it was a call of God. One of the deepest experiences in my life has been the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The joy of preaching the Word followed. My prayer is that the Word and the Spirit will ever be my guide. Rev. ROBERT T. WILSON 7 How the years fly; a teacher at F.GB.I. since 1950, I was saved at home in my early childhood through the prayers of a godly mother and faithfully instructed from the Word of God by my Sunday School teacher. I graduated from F.G.B.L with the class of 1948, having previously at¬ tended the Western Bible College in Regina for one semester. Ever since receiving the call of the Lord in August, 1944, I have been engaged in evangelistic work. It was my joy to travel with Youth for Christ International and Every Crea¬ ture Crusade in Europe, Jamaica, Cuba, U.S.A., and Canada. At the present time I am engaged in pioneer evangelism and church planting in the West Coast in con¬ nection with the home missions pro¬ gram of the Evangelistic Tabernacle, Vancouver, B.C. My most outstanding experience was during Camp Meeting at Lake Katepwa, where God baptized me with the Holy Spirit and divinely called me to preach the Gospel. I Peter 5:1-4 “Feed the flock of God which is among you taking the oversight. . I accepted Christ as my Saviour at Trossachs camp when twelve years old. After my release from the army I attended C.B.I. in Regina, coming to F.G.B.L for my second and third year terms. After graduating in 1948 I joined Art Sheppard and Eldon Johnson in evangelistic work in the Kootenays of B.C., remaining with the Sheppard party for a couple of years before finally b ranching out on my own phase of Christian work with children and young people. I joined the faculty of F.G.B.l. in 1950 and have been returning each year for the first semester as teacher of Child Study. During the summer months I direct Bible Camps and Vacation Bible School Teams, reaching boys and girls across Western Canada with the gospel. Teacher Training courses coupled with children’s meetings take up the remainder of my busy year. Child-Evangelist WILBERT E. CROWDER 8 I was saved in the Regina Apos¬ tolic Mission in the spring of 1930. Later my Bible knowledge was at¬ tained by attending church regularly seven days a week for two years, also by spending several hours a week in private Bible study. Having previously pastored in Saskatchewan at Imperial, Yorkton and Moose Jaw, I am now labouring at the Apostolic Mission in Regina. The most outstanding experience in my spiritual life was the transforma¬ tion that came by receiving Christ as my personal Saviour. Soon after¬ wards I was baptized with the Holy Spirit, speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gave utterance. For the past number of years I have spent part of each term at F.G.B.I. where the ministering of the Word of God has been a real bless¬ ing to me. Rev. ELWOOD L. McRAE Faculty I Tim. 5:17 “They who labour in the word and doctrine.” Christ became my Saviour in 1933, at Swift Current, Sask. I received a definite call to the ministry while attending the Fundamental Bible Col¬ lege at Grenfell. After completing Bible School I was engaged as an evangelist for eight consecutive years, ministering across Canada and parts of the U.S.A., and having pastored at Wis- hart, Sask., Houlton, Me., U.S.A., am at present pastoring in Calgary, Alberta. I have served the Apostolic Organization as a member of the Presbytery Board and Missionary Council, and have had the joy of ministering at conventions and camp meetings. The highlight of my experience was in 1956, when the Lord gave me the privilege of travelling around the world in the ministry of the Word, visiting 22 countries, and ministering on all missionary stations connected with the Full Gospel Fellowship. Since 1953, I have been minister¬ ing at F.G.B.I. Rev. FRANK J. KOSICK 9 Like Timothy, I, too, was blessed with a godly mother and grandmoth¬ er, who told me from childhood of God ' s love and how to become a member of His family through the miracle of the “new birth.” I received the Lord Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour during revival meetings in the Regina Apostolic Mission and publicly identified myself with Christ in water baptism and received the gift of the Holy Spirit that same month. From 1945 to 1947 I attended the Prairie Apostolic Bible Institute in Saskatoon, Sask., and there received the call of God into the ministry. My first pastorate was at Punnichy, Sask., from 1947 until 1950 when I moved to Melfort, Sask., remaining there until 1953. For the next two years I travelled extensively in evan¬ gelistic ministry, fn 1956, I accepted the pastorate at Forest Lawn, Alberta, for two years, until my appointment as editor of the End Times’ Mes¬ senger. Last year I joined the Faculty of F.G.B.I. Rev. IRWIN W. ELLIS Faculty “Laying up in store ... a good foundation.” I was raised in the atmosphere of a godly home and at the age of twelve came to know Jesus as my Saviour under the ministry of Rev. P. G. Kylio. One year later God bap¬ tized me with the Holy Spirit. My original home was Yorkton, Sask. Later I moved to Vancouver, and from there came to F.G.B.f. In the spring of 1951 I accepted the position of Registrar at F.G.B.I. and also the responsibility of teaching typing to the second and third year students for an average of four classes a week. The permanent typing room has been a great asset this term. In the Eston Assembly the privi¬ leges of assisting in the work of the Sunday School has been a great bless¬ ing to me- MISS PEARL K. KROGEL 10 Business Manager J. RONALD BURNSIDE I was born again as a young man, but not realizing the greatness of sal¬ vation, I followed afar off. The turn¬ ing point in my spiritual career came when I married. My wife became my guide in spiritual things. Not long after our marriage the burden for God’s work became more real and by leaving the job of grain buying I could put more time into the work of the Lord. I took part in the forming of Bethel Mission in Pangman, which always has been a highlight in my life. The years as manager of Trossachs Camp helped to train my life for the position I now hold. Although I have never been called to be a preacher, I feel the Lord has given me a ministry and a burden for the work I am now endeavouring to fulfill. Romans 12:11-13 “Not slothful in business . . . serving the Lord.” Sister Ruth Martin and Sister Mildred Sauer graduated from F.G. B.l. with the class of 58. We are thankful that they were willing to return this year and join the staff of the institute. Their labours have been appreciated! Mildred says, 1 was born and raised in a Christian home. While attending Kedleston Camp in 1945, I accepted Christ as my personal Saviour and was graciously bap¬ tized in the Holy Spirit. My work for the Lord has been centered in Vacation Bible School and Sunday School work, and every opportunity for service has been appreciated.” Ruth says, I was saved at the age of six while attending a service con¬ ducted in a country school. In 1949 I received the Baptism in the Holy Spirit at Kedleston Camp. The past two summers have been spent in children’s work. My desire is to do my best for Jesus. Cooks RUTH L. MARTIN and MILDRED D.

If you did you discovered that you were dealing with human beings not angels. Young people with con¬ viction! Young people with ideas! Ideas not always accepted by the school. Ideas not always wrong but not always right either. The student body is entirely new every three years. The faculty per¬ sonnel hasn ' t changed a great deal in fifteen years. Thus the situation is like the days of Reoboam king of Judah. There are ‘old advisors” and “young advisors”. This is one real reason for a Student Council. The Council be¬ comes the mediator between two groups, the faculty and the student body. You can easily see the necessity and wisdom of having such a group. Mediator! Today that is an interesting word. The Western world had almost forgotten the need of such until recent years of difficulties and differ¬ ences. Now in these days of distress “Mediation Boards” are doing a great work. In mission fields “mediators” are a part of both missionary and heathen life. For example, when a missionary pays wages to a native worker he pays through a mediator, then if a mistake is made, the mediator, not the missionary is responsible. The Old Testament is filled with illustrations of mediation. Priests, prophets, sacrifices, all speak of the need of mediation between God and man. The New Testament plainly states, “ There is One Mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus.” Again Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” If in ordinary life, you can see the need of mediation boards, and in Bible School life you can see the need of a Student Council, can you not also see your need of a Mediator with God? The Only Mediator, as already stated is Jesus Christ. To know Him is to know life, t o know Him is Salvation. He alone can iron out” the diffi¬ culties, and problems of life. Have you invited Him to be your Mediator? Your Saviour? 13 Accomplishment! What do you think of when you think of accomplishment? To a little child perhaps it is being able to balance on its two chubby little legs in the centre of a play-pen for a few brief seconds without holding on to the sides. To an older child, perhaps coasting down hill for a whole block on a bicycle without falling, or building an airplane that took first prize in the Glider Club contest is accomplishment. To a young person, it could be winning the Provincial Scholarship for an outstanding literary work, or could it be increasing the carburation on his 1948 model to the point where it has 20 percent more power and at least 30 percent more take off” than anything else in its class. To the geologist, accomplishment may be the unearthing and fitting of the last piece of an ancient relic or fitting into place the final bone of a prehistoric creature. The scientist ' s receiving of a series of beeps and dashes” which tells him his man-made planet is millions of miles into space from point of launching and indicates its every intention to stay aloft for perhaps years may mean accomplishment. On and on we could go from one vocation to another. To you, looking at us as a graduating class from Bible School, perhaps you read into our minds . . . accomplishment. After every attained feat, there comes to the seeker an air of inner satisfaction; but someone has very appropriately given the presenting of diplomas the title of commencement exercises . In Philippians 3:13 and 14, the Apostle Paul, one who had studied, preached, and worn himself out in the effort to make Christ known, said, Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the make for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Our goal is the presence of God, accompanied by the words of our Saviour, Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord. Through out history mankind has invariably been dissatisfied with existing conditions. He has kept his vision to the future for better things. Beloved, let us, God s chosen vessels, not be satisfied with our present accomplishments, but press toward also. What the world needs is Jesus, Therefore my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord- GRADUATION GRADUATING CLASS CLASS HISTORY Fred Quist MISSIONARY SPEAKER Rev. E. Johnson Special Solo Last Will and Testament Class Song BANQUET ' 59 At the expense of the Second Year Class Ben . . . the M.C. 16 CHALLENGERS Isaiah 55:10-11 states the fact that just as surely as the rain and the snow from heaven watereth the earth and maketh it to bring forth and bud, so would the Word of the Lord prosper in the thing whereto it was sent. As a third year class we have seen and felt the mighty working of the Holy Spirit, through the Word in each of our lives. Just as the rain and snow waters the earth and makes it bring forth and bud, the Word of God em¬ bedded itself in our hearts, revolutionized our personalities and instilled in our lives the love of God. The first term we thought we knew a little about the Word, but as we sat under the ministry of the Faculty we discovered that the extent of our knowledge was very limited. Each of us realizing how little we knew of the Word and sampling its goodness, we hungered for more. As the Word made an indelible imprint on our lives so did the moving of the Holy Spirit in our midst. Some mornings when everything seemed so dry we met for devotions and the Lord graciously poured out His Spirit upon the dry and thirsty ground. It was during these movings of the Spirit that the person of Jesus was made real to us. In John 15:26 Jesus said the Spirit would testify of Him. When the Spirit was in our midst, we couldn’t help but be melted and moved because we saw Jesus in His loveliness and faith¬ fulness and ourselves so unworthy and unfaithful. As we come to the termination of our Bible School training we realize that we have been only initiated to the study of the Word and that before us is a vast, unfathomable field of learning. In our three terms, the fact that souls without Jesus Christ are going to a lost eternity, has been very definitely impressed upon our minds and hearts. We pray the Lord of harvest to thrust us into His harvest field and may we be faithful in the dispensing of the Gospel. Student Council President STEWART D.

MARSHALL BILLY MOORE NORMAN, ROY, KEN, BEN BOB, KEN, WILLARD Musical JOYCE TAUBER 35 Groups LINDA, SHIRLEY HAROLD CAIN MARLENE AND GLEN PAULSON BEN, KEN, GLEN, PHIL EILEEN PAULSON 36 The responsibilities and duties of a prayer band leader are many and var¬ ied but his main job is to direct the weekly prayer meeting. He must keep the group informed as to acti¬ vities and information per¬ tinent to them as well. The leader also assigns duties to the different members of the group. Africa For the purpose of our prayer bands, we have divided the world into seven major areas. After the students have selected the prayer band they wish to join, places and times for meetings are chosen. The class rooms have proven to be very suitable meeting places either before school in the morning, or at four o’clock in the afternoon. God has richly blessed in these times of prayer together. The main purpose of each prayer band is to pray for the missionaries and the field which they represent. Correspondence between students and missionaries keeps us acquainted with the needs and prayer requests of each particular field. Through prayer we can help share the burden of the work of winning souls in a field that is white all ready to harvest. Letter Writers 37 • + , mt § • ++ £ + ♦ ] Reasons for joining a prayer band are many and varied. Some join because they have definitely felt the call of God to that particular field. Others have a close friend or relative serving the Lord there for whom they pray. Some have a general interest in the field. WHO WILL IT BE? WILL YOU BE A CANDIDATE? AFRICA NEEDS MISSIONARIES!

Stevens Each Wednesday morning in our chapel devotions-, one of the prayer bands takes charge of the service. A report of the different missionaries and their work is given and le tters are read. The hymns, testimonies, special numbers and the message are geared to present the challenge of the field represented. It has always been a real blessing to have visiting missionaries speak on these occasions. 38 China, Japan, Korea Rev. D. Wallace and his family were the first Apostolic missionaries in this field. Since the work began in the fall of 1953, several more of our mission¬ aries have joined them. The work has grown and now includes an orphanage, an elementary school, many established churches and other different phases of evangelism. Plans are now being laid for a Bible School. While we sit idly by, thou¬ sands of orphaned and home¬ less Korean children roam the streets with no one to care about them. They are in a des¬ perate state and their hearts are open to the Word of God. Japan holds opportunities for evangelism in hospitals, barges, sanatoriums and prisons, but the labourers are few.

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! Romans 10:14-15 The salvation of souls always brings about a conflict between the powers of God and the powers of darkness. We can all help in this battle, by praying for those who faithfully preach the Word. “God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you. ' ’ — 1 Sam. 12:23. “Hear the Lord of harvest sweetly calling. Who will go and work for me today. Who will bring to me the lost and dying, Who will point them to the narrow way?” It is possible, as we have seen from past experience, that God will call some from our number to serve Him on the mission field. Who will go? Only God knows the answer. The blanked-out faces rep¬ resent new missionaries. Will you be one? burope ON THE FIELD Rev. and Mrs. Frank Smith, Portugal Rev. and Mrs. Foster, on furlough in England Rev. and Mrs. Wiens, Italy Rev. and Mrs. Ransome, Jerusalem, Israel Rev. and Mrs. White, Great Britain Rev. John Abraham, Great Britain In Europe, poverty is known to the majority of people but especially behind the Iron Curtain. A letter from a Hungarian Christian begged help for his starving and freezing children—not Christmas gifts. Europe is not London or Paris. It is millions of fatherless children and helpless adults: result of war. They need Christ! The population of Europe is 550,000,000. It is divided into 37 countries out of which six are nomi¬ nally Protestant, nine have Communistic governments and two are under the control of Rome. In England, nominally Protestant, an estimated 97 percent of the population don’t attend church regu¬ larly. 200,000,000 people in Europe have never laid eyes on a Bible. There are only 107 Pentecostal missionaries min¬ istering on this continent where the net population increase exceeds the number of souls won daily to the Lord. PRAYING FOR MISSIONS Paris, 1952.—The European Bible Institute opened with nine students. During the next three years its enrollment doubled each year. Its curriculum includes Bible, Sunday School Administration, Child Evangelism, and Practical Methods of Evangelism. This school, and others like the German Bible Institute which opened in 1955, are turning out gradu¬ ates who are filling a great gap in full time Christian service. 41 Communists are doing every¬ thing possible to take over Europe. On Moscow’s orders, local Reds are encouraging Algerian terrorists in France, unemployed workers in Italy, fishermen in Iceland, and dis¬ gruntled minorities everywhere. Reds are strong in labour movements and politics in many countries. What are YOU doing to save Europe from Godless Communism. The answer — Christ. There is not a Middle East Prayer Band, so we have included Israel here. There are a number of Pentecostal churches in Israel. In Jerusalem, “The Bible Evangelistic Mission” pastored by Rev. J. W. Foster, is of special interest to us because one of our students, “Deena,’’ was con¬ verted through this work. While Brother and Sister Foster are on furlough in England, Rev. and Mrs. A. Ransome are continuing to labour there. Another convert, Miss Mazie Abraham cares for the Mission Bible Shop, reaching thousands through this means of circulating Scripture. SINGING FOR CHRIST 42 Home Missions Jesus commands that the gospel be preached in Jerusalem, Judaea, Samaria, and then to the uttermost part of the earth. If this command is to be carried out, how can we neglect our own Jerusalem—home town, Judaea—home province, Samaria—home country? There are still thousands of needy souls in our home mission fields who have not yet heard the gospel. Many have heeded the call to the Lord to remote places, where possibly unknown to most, they are faithfully telling the gospel story. Some are preaching on the Indian reserves, some are in children ' s work, some are preaching while holding jobs. All could be classed as home missionaries and their names are too numerous to mention. HOW MANY . . . Si- Missionary work is being done by Rev. and Mrs. E. G. McLean on the Onion Lake reserve in northern Saskatchewan. Their desire is to see indigenous churches established here. Ron Hooper laboured among the Indians on four reserves around Punnichy and district this past sum¬ mer. The great need here is for a full time missionary. Many reserves are still waiting for someone to come with the gospel of salvation. There is a great need for dedicated labourers who are willing to sacri¬ fice to tell of our Lord. i 43 There are districts in the northern parts of our own province that do not have a gospel witness. There are thousands of people who have never had the oppor¬ tunity to accept Jesus Christ as Saviour. When these facts are considered, it makes us realize that we have a needy mission field right at our back door. Canada’s forgotten people are her Eskimos. Although there is some fundamental work being done among them, the average Christian has little or no concern about their souls ' salvation. They are victims of pagan darkness and superstition. They need Christ to set them free. Remember God loves them— do you? HOME MISSIONARIES? Quebec’s need can hardly be expressed. The vast majority of these French Canadians are bound by Rome. Because of this, approximately 43 percent of Canadians are Romanists. Some fundamentalist groups are preaching the full Gospel in Quebec. Under a steady, though hidden persecution, the Gospel goes slowly forth. In 1950 there was a riot against Evangelicals. Radio broadcasts are being curbed. Workers are needed in Quebec—what about you? 44 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with the groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.” Romans 8:26-27 I Although Tibet is a closed field, it is being reached by faithful Christian workers and missionaries who minister to the Tibetian traders coming into India. Even more effective than this method, is the drop¬ ping of Christian literature by air. We cannot tell how far- reaching the impact of the gos¬ pel is in Tibet. India India today suffers from famine and the awful superstitions contained in heathen darkness. Illiteracy only helps to increase this superstition. In their hunger and search for something satisfying they are grasping communism. This is a field whitened unto harvest. What is to be done for Christ must be done now,— the door is fast closing to the gospel. PRAYING THAT GOD WILL CALL Rev. and Mrs. Nielsen Rev. and Mrs. Schalm Rev. and Mrs. Barbour Rev. and Mrs. Nemeth Rev. and Mrs. Schingler Miss I. Ashley Miss E. Steeves Bro. Nielsen has founded a Bible School to train native Christians. One of the most effective ministries today is through literature. In the past ten months Bro. Nielsen has published and distributed two million tracts. They also have various booklets on Bible subjects. (Reports from the other workers had not been received at the time of publication.) Pray for the Holy Spirit’s conviction in India. In India today we have only 274 Pentecostal missionaries serving 400 mil¬ lion people. There are still 200 million in unevangelized areas. Canada and England are the only countries at the present time that are able to send missionaries to India. The door is closed for other countries and is fast closing for us also. England herself has become a mission field today as only a small percentage attend church regu¬ larly. The souls of the four hundred mil¬ lion Indian people are going to be re¬ quired at the hands of the present gen¬ eration of Canadian Christian people.

The largest Protestant church in the North is Presbyterian, the Church of Ireland, second. The Pen¬ tecostal groups are small in number. Romanism is in a minority, yet is the largest single religious body. In Eire, Romanism is the professed faith of 90 percent of the population. Protestantism is steadily decreasing. The government claims religious freedom yet recent events would suggest otherwise. We pray God to raise labourers for this needy field, to carry the Full Gospel to this land. Praying My name is Pedro Contazo. I was born here in Cuba. We Cubans love our island. Even today as I look around, I see the azure sky, the gentle cool sea, the happiness of the sun as it glitters on the water, and palms swaying in the breeze. But as I go to town, I pass the Casino where many people drink, gamble and laugh. I get that bad feeling inside again; a restlessness which I cannot describe. (Now read Part II) Maria says I do not burn enough candles at the shrine, but oh! I have. I spent all last week ' s wages for candles, but the Virgin did not help me. It is hard to say what it is. There is pain and blackness inside; I am afraid of God and I am afraid to die. God is merciless and I am so bad! (Now read Part III) Well, I went to see my friend Guiseppi, but he only laughed; “Why Pedro, there is no God. Religion is only for women and children, not men Pedro, ho-ho. You come comrade, we have a meeting tonight, the party is the place for you.” So I went with Guiseppi. Communists they call themselves. The fear only became greater. I do not know what to do: what shall I do to be clean, where shall I go when I die? My heart is troubled. Somebody, help me! For Workers World There are millions in the island world, like Pedro. Dare you withhold the good news from any man? 48 South America The Auca Indians of Ecuador are a feared and savage Stone Age tribe. The government has left them alone because attempts to reach them have cost many lives. In 1956 five American men endeavored to reach them with the gospel. The Aucas added these men to their long list of murders. Pray for the widows of these men as they continue this dangerous mission. Brazil is the most challenging mission field in South America. Its people are breaking out of their lethargy and entering into an age of progress and in¬ dustrialization. There is religious freedom and the people have a hunger in their hearts for the gospel. The Pentecostals are the largest Protestant organiza¬ tion in Brazil. If we do not fill the gap. Catholicism, Communism and other rulers of the darkness will soon take over. One of the most effective ways of presenting the gospel is by radio broadcasting. These towers of testimony—the an¬ tennae of missionary radio sta¬ tions rise high in the snow- peaked Andes Mountains of Ecuador. HCJB Quito is doing a tremendous job in proclaim¬ ing the message of deliverance to all nations. The most predominant obstacle con¬ fronting missionaries in South America is Catholicism. In Argentina only Roman Catholics are allowed to work among the Indians. For this reason many may never hear the gospel. Only prayer can remove this barrier and bring light into the dark¬ ness. rTi T Native Evangelist at Baptismal Service In the remote jungles of South America, living among primitive tribes¬ men are many daring young Americans and Canadians known as the Wycliffe Translators. Their mission is two-fold: to reduce to writing the numerous unwritten languages used by the jungle tribes, and through this means to bring literacy, civ¬ ilization and Christianity to Indians who have known little but want and savage superstition. To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sin, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. Acts 26:18. South America today has a popula¬ tion of 127,955,000. Of her 3,989 Pro¬ testant missionaries only 294 are Pente¬ costal.. Brazil has the largest number of Pentecostal missionaries, 98, while Ecua¬ dor has only 2. New Workers 50 HAPPY HOUR EXECUTIVE ELROSE SNIPE LAKE 51 F.G.B.I.
