The
Workers There Have Great Difficulties To Contend With, And Of The
Same Sort As We Have In China, From Roman Catholicism - The Most God-
Dishonoring System In The World.
The heathen need your prayers, but
the Roman Catholic needs them ten times more.
He is ten times as much
in the dark as the heathen themselves are."
The Missionary Review of the World describes South America as
"Earth's darkest land." Do you not think, O reader, the words are
most truly applied?
"There are in South America eight hundred missionaries, men and
women, from Great Britain, the Continent of Europe, Canada and the
United States. In Canada and the United States there is on an average
one Protestant minister for every 514 persons. In South America each
missionary has a constituency of about fifty thousand, indicating a
need in proportion of population one hundred times as great as in the
Protestant countries of North America." [Footnote: Bishop Neely's
"South America."]
Yet, One called Jesus, whom we say we love, said: "Go ye into all the
world and preach the Gospel to every creature."
