ililiazinnarg Glirrlr MYRTLE HUTCHINSON 'But when he saw the Multitude, he wa.s moved with compassion on them, be- cause they fainted, and were scattered abroad as sheep having no shepher-d. Then said he unto his disciples, ' The harvest truly is p'lenteous but the labourers are few. -Matt. 9:36, 37. We very readily see in this inspired scripture that Jesus saw a need. He not only saw the need but was moved to compassion by it. This was the fruit of His own recognition of th-e need, but in order to avvalke in his disciples a like recognition He instructed them thus: Pray ye therefore the Lord of the Harvest that He will send forth labourers into His Harvest. In this positive command I believe Jesus had a two-fold meaning: To pray that God would send others, and to be ready, while praying, to answer the prayer. To me this is one of the most positite commands of the New Testament. This is our purpose as a Missionary Circle. We as a Circle have done what we could to meet this great need but there is much more to lie done. We a.s young people have iust started but we expect to expand. We feel that the activities ef the Missionary Circle is the most noble aven-ue throrgh which we can meet the need. We see visions, after seeing our visions, needs present themselves. We want as a Church School, and body of young people to keep the vision before us. Then we can say with the Apostle Peter, 'iYea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee and love to feed Thy Sheep. -Page Twenty-four- -,FV ,s,,..f1?7:.y. , x,A'
