THE KING’S BUSINESS
D—, a man 80 years old, who said that for twenty years he had wanted to trust Jesus Christ and would go into the Mission with the thought of deciding, but failed when the opportunity was given, at last found grace to take his stand for Christ and went out, rejoicing in sins forgiven. H—‘j-a moulder from Pennsylvania, was led into the Mission one afternoon, still suffering from the effects of a spree. He was pressed to accept Christ, which he did, and work was found for him the next day. K—, a prizefighter from Illinois, a run away from home, a boy with good religious
training, but who had lived for three years in the atmosphere of the “underworld,” .found his father’s and mother’s God. T—, one of our fellow-townsmen and a salesman, but a drunkard, separated from his home because of drink, found the Saviour and a united home the same night. He dropped into Yokefellows’ the other afternoon and told of j oy-and peace and a happy home. God gives U S ' the joy of seeing such cases as these get right with Him most every day. Bless His name for the Gospel of His grace that saves sinners!
------------ $------------ SPANISH MISSION WORK
L. H. Jamison, Supt.
HE man referred to in the last number of T he K ing ' s B usiness , who, after about four years of prodigal life in Mexico, returned to the Mission saying that he had had enough of the devil’s service, still con tinues to come. He has again taken a definite stand for God, and we hope that the Lord may yet use him greatly in winning souls for Christ'. Employment has been ob tained for him, and he has been working now for over two weeks. H.e needs your prayers. A simple expository address was given the other night from the first chapter of Ephesians. The Lord’s presence could be felt in the not very large gathering of souls in the Mission hall. At the close of the address two or three testimonies were given,
followed by a simple invitation to accept the Lord Jesus as Saviour.’ Three men re sponded, and from all outward signs, were sincere in their confession of Christ as their only Saviour and Lord. The Gospel message has been given to many souls at the. hospitals and jail during the month. Each Lord’s Day afternoon a Gospel service' is held at the city jail where there are a large number of Mexicans. The interest at our street-boys Sunday School, each Lord’s Day from 12:30 to 1:30, still keeps up. We have three classes now. " While little open opposition has been man ifested of late towards our daily open-air preaching, yet we are aware that the enemy is not asleep. We need your prayers very much.
