SPECIAL STUDENTS MRS. MARGARET DUECK. Steinbach Our sister profitably takes time off from her household duties to attend classes in Prayer and Child Evangelism. Her loving manner will stand her in good stead in the Master’s service. LAWRENCE REIMER, GIROUX, man. Brother Lawrence has adopted a good policy: not to undertake a task so great that it cannot be accomplished. He is taking the course in four years. He says, “I wish to let the world see Jesus in me and to tell the lost of the sav¬ ing power of Jesus Christ.” JACOB DUECK, rosenort. man. He began his Bible training in Altona and came to Steinbach to continue taking his second year. However, the Lord put an ob¬ stacle in his path; ill health compelled him to discontinue his studies for the time be¬ ing. In brother Dueck we have an example of true Christian sincerity. The Cry of the Millions There are millions today who in anguish are crying, For someone to show them “The Way.” “Is there no one who cares that as sinners we’re dying No hope for that great judgment day?” “We have no peace — we live in despair Even though to our gods we oft pray, Still evil spirits are everywhere. Come help us, Oh! do not delay.” How can we then turn a deaf ear to the cry Of the millions who never have heard The glad Gospel of Christ who this peace doth supply As revealed in God’s Holy Word ? Do we say we have joy and sweet peace in our heart. And commune with our Saviour and King, But yet are unwilling to them to impart The Way” which these blessings doth bring? Therefore millions in fear out in darkness are dying Because workers today are so few Who are burdened and heed to their mournful crying. Dear Christian, is it nothing to you ? —Elizabeth Reimer 25
