GOD CANNOT
By INEZ McGAHEY Lelah De Long ’48, Japan: “ Thank you for praying for a new location for our church here in Okaya. The Lord has answered prayer, and beginning very shortly we will meet in o u r n e w location. W e were able to rent two large connecting rooms in a home just a few buildings from our present location. There is easy access from the road, and a lovely garden runs the length of the rooms. This will be a temporary location until the church is able to buy land and build their own building, as the Lord provides.” Jim ’44 and Viola (Bogue ’45) Halbert, West Africa: “ Fifty per cent of the popu lation of Africa is made up of youth less than twenty years old. In the Ivory Coast in 1959, 40% of the children were in school, and there is a scheduled increase of 10% yearly, so that by 1967 every child will be in school. There are 700 govern ment primary schools, and 500 Catholic primary schools with an enrollment of nearly 57,000 pupils, or a third of the total number of school children. Protestant primary schools number about 30 with around 5,000 pupils. The above figure of 40% of the children in school is accounted for mainly in the lower part of the Ivory Coast. Here in the Korhogo area, probably at least 80% of the children still do not attend school. . . . In Korhogo, one of the four centers of the Ivory Coast under the government’s new divisions of the land, a large and ever-enlarging ‘normal school’ is training future teachers. Among the students are some Protestants from the lower coast area. Three weeks ago I started a ‘release time’ Bible study class on Satur day afternoon with some of these young fellows. . . . To my knowledge there is not one born-again believer in this town among the educated, either African or French.” Elmer L. Wilder ’26 ’27, Hospital, Port land, Oregon: “ When I walked into (Betty’s) room, she said, ‘Chaplain, some thing strange is in the air tonight. If this is the end, I want you to know that I have peace with God. My main concern is that my loved ones might have the peace I have.’ W e prayed, and then sat in silence awaiting the brother’s coming. Soon the mother said, ‘Chaplain, I want to receive Christ as my personal Saviour, the same as Betty, on the day of her death.* What a joy to hear her say, ‘I know I am saved— I have wonderful peace.’ ” Stuart and Phyllis (Bapple ’47) Sendall- King, England: “ This year we are trust ing God that the new air aid programme in Ethiopia w ill come into being. This, too, has been part of our job— to co-ordin ate plans for this new advance. Pray with us that God w ill enable us fully to meet the costs for the new plane in Ethiopia and that visas, et cetera for Bob and Betty Hutchins may be granted to enable them to move into this needed mountainous, isolated area and set up the M A F opera tions. . . . Soon we are looking to God to make clear His plan for our Headquarters over here. It is still a vital need, so pray with us regarding this.”
break the power of sin where the Gospel is not known. Yours can be the thrilling task of freeing souls enslaved by sin. Are you willing to be used by God in some needy field of the world?
