OF tne people WHO use the EnSusn tongue. We
are Il factor of growing importance in that
great race which by restless impulse isspread-
ing its dorniliOE, its trade and its civilization
over vast regions of every continent. Let us
rise to the height Of our calling. We ought to
60 wherever Gun race goes, to multiply our
churches, to increase our communications, and
SO become . bond Of unlon among the wide
spread peoples OF EnglisL blood, and we should
strive to check that dangerous tempe: into
which adventurous and governing races SO easily
fall So shall VT do our duty to our fellow men
and play our part in the great plan of God.
Before another scumenlcai conference the
world will have passed into another century
Ten critical years OF the swiftly moving modern
world will have rolled away Opportunities
will have offered themselves which will never
come again We pray that our churches may
clearly and rightly interpret the signs of the
yield themselves entirely to it. -.
Brethren, we need not remind you 81 the
deep springs Of the spiritual life. Thoughtful
reading of the VOID of God, regular sessions OF
prayer in secret in the family and in the
church, the class meeting, public worship and
the Holy sacrament. where We remember that
tie Jo:d gave Himself for us and gives Himself
to us, from these are drawn the grace OF life.
H. them We learn to do justly and love mercy
and walk huuibly with ouI God, and we gather
that wisdom and strength without which our
vast enterprises are but folly and vanity.
1--WE especially commend to your faithful
and earnest observance the week of special
prayer which will shortly be held throughout
the Methodist rid.
Now may the God Of peace, tina. brought
again from the dead our Lord Jesus Christ
that Great Shepherd of the sheep, through the
blood Of the everlasting covenant. make you
perfect in every good work " do His will.
working in you that which is well pleasing in
His sight. through Jesus Christ, to whom be
glory Tor ever and ever. Amen"
