,Home -Missions WINSTON KIRKLAND-Group Leader The work of us home missionaries is often overlooked. We have a duty to the people in our own country who have neverlheard of Jesus Christ. Home mission work includes pioneer churches, ministry to the deaf and to the blind, prison ministry, and care of or- phans. We have groups here at South-Eastern which are very active in different phases of Home Missions. ,.-CJK Lil I PEGGY McGLOTHLlN-Group Leader This land, where the caste system and ioint- tamily system are still prominent, has always presented a real challenge for Christian miss- ionaries. Many of the people ot India are still bound by ancient traditions and the strong- holds of Muslim and Hinduism. India is now being torn by both internal and external politi- cal strife. It it is to be reached with the Gospel of Christ, it must be reached novv.

5 ttitvawww V NQWW' orth merican ndian JENNY SERCY-Group Leader There are those in our own country who have never heard the name Jesus and do not know His love for them. The North American Indians have been a neglected people too long. Some of the North American Indians are still steeped in the paganism and heathen- ism that their ancestors have known for cen- turies. We owe a tremendous debt to these people who were the original inhabitants of the United States. Should any man hear the Gospel twice until all have heard once? gewish LOUIS MONTECALVO-Group Leader For l am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believethg to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Russia FRED MAYFIELD-Group Leader We have a Tremendous responsibility to pray for the Russian people who are under the yoke of Godless Communism. The avowed purpose of the Communists is to stamp out faith in God and conquer the world for Communism. Our purpose must be Win the lost at any cost !l Christians may never be allowed to enter Russ- ia or other Communistic countries as mission- aries, but we can all pray for the Russian peo- ple. As we look around us, All the fields are white, Ripened unto harvest And so swiftly comes the night, Christians must get busy, There is work to do, Here's an urgent task awaiting you. Check the fold my Christian, Are the children in? Are there yet some straying, Lost in blackened fields of sin, You must go and reach them, Go without delay, Soon the shades of night will end the day. Souls are crying, Men are dying, Won't you lead them to the cross? Go and find them, Help to win them, Win the lost at any cost. Go out and win, rescue from sin, Day's almost done, low sinks the sun. Souls are crying, men are dying, Win the lost at any cost. -LEON H. ELLIS
