THE HUNAN WORK FRANK W. KELLER, Supt. Victorious Life Messages in China Mr. C. G, Trumbull’s messages on “The Victorious Life” having meant so much to so many of us who were privi leged to hear him at Kuling, it was very much regretted that Mrs. Trumbull and he could not possibly attend the Nan Yoh Conference as had been suggested. Rather than miss the opportunity it was arranged that Mrs. Porteous and I should go there on our way back to our station and we have much reason to thank God that He so guided us. Many who have been specially pray ing about our visit and ministry at Nan Yoh will be interested to hear some>- thing about it. We left Changsha on a boat train crowded with pilgrims. On their way to Nan Yoh temple they kept chanting their prayers as we steamed along, the wav^es of song almost swamped us, at times we couldn’t "even hear ourselves speak. So we struck up our “Victory
Song” and strange to say theirs soon stopped short, doubtless they were in terested to catch what we were singing. Would that they too could “Sing unto the Lord a new song!” “His right hand and His holy arm hath gotten Him the Victory.”—for them as for us, but alas! they don’t know it. We tried to tell them but they seemed too full of their own pursuits to give much heed to what we had to say, though some listened when we told them how We too were Pilgrims to Zion the city of the Living God where alone true joy and happiness abound for evermore. Victorious Life Talks The river journey took us as far as Hengshan where we spent the night, starting by chair the next morning for Nan Yoh. On our arrival there we got a very hearty welcome from Dr. F. A. Keller who as we entered the Confer ence building remarked “They’ll be ready for you in about fifteen minutes”, so we had some light refreshments and then began our “Victorious Life” talks
