Crossroad Evangelism
Dotted all over the landscape are
little crossroad outposts, perhaps a
gasoline station on one corner and a
country grocery on the other. Not
very far away may be a little school
house or hall. It could be a sleepy
little frontier inviting the MV inva-
sion army to take over. Careful
planning, wise counseling, good ad-
vertising, and thorough preparation
mixed with prayer and singspiration
could build a little outpost church on
a four corners in a faraway place.
Farmyard Evangelism
Somehow it is easy to teach people
about God’s creation when their feet
are on a soft carpet of grass, their
eyes taking in the beauty of the hills
and woods, and their ears alert for the

sounds of farm and field. Out on the
big lawn near the friendly country
road is an outpost awaiting the com-
ing of your squad of the MV invasion
army td share its faith. Here in the
farmyard of a neighbor you may un-
fold the drama of the ages. A few
pictures} could be shown on a screen—
a sheet hoisted between trees will do.
Outpost Evangelism—it’s new,
alltown Evangelism
Therelis a shady little town on the
flat prairies of the Midwest that has a
pretty little church. This clean white
structure’ testifies every hour of every
day to the MV's who shared their
faith through outpost evangelism.
From their home church thirty miles
away they journeyed each evening to
the little lodge hall on the second
floor. The place was clean, the chairs
were rented, the speakers numbered
six, the ushers were on the job, the
Advenettes did the singing. Today
the truth flourishes, and people are
glad that the MV's came to town.

The Antillian Union Annual
Committee
L. F. Bohner
Three-thousand baptisms and 35,000
Sabbath School members for 1954
were among the goals that were en-
thusiastically adopted by the Antillian
Union Annual Committee which was
held in Havana, Cuba, from Novem-
ber 26-30.
We were encouraged to hear that
during 1952 the Aantillian Union had
doubled its working capital bringing
the organizations almost up to their
authorized capital. Due to economic’
difficulties the tithe giving during
1953 did not equal that of the pre-
vious year, but despite these losses in

three of the local fields, the Union as
a whole had a slight gain in tithe.
Probably the two most important
matters discussed in the meeting was
the large evangelistic effort which El
der Schubert is to hold in Havana
starting in February, and the final
plans for the opening of the Bellavista
Hospital in Puerto Rico.
Our prayers will be with Elder
Clyde Franz, president of the Antil-
lian Union and Brother C. L. Powers.
