Two million men, women and chill
dren in the Baptist Sunday schools
of the South will have their minds
and their hearts directed to mission
airy work on Sunday, April 12, and
the collections on that day will be
devoted to the great home and for
eign mission enterprises of the de-
nomination. For several years it
has been the custom Of the Sunday
school board Of the Southern Baptist
Convention to specialize on mission
ary topics for one Sunday in each
year, and this time the date falls on
Easter Sunday.
In order to prepare for this occa-
sion, and to bring it forcibly and
conCretely to the attention Of South
ern Baptist people, the regular les
son for this Sunday in all the period
icals Is dispensed with and a special
ly prepared missionary lesson Is sub
stituted. In this way the $4,000
Baptist Sunday schools in the South
are featuring the missionary idea and
the missionary spirit IS strengthened
and deepened.
In order to further emphasize the
missionary feature the Sunday
School Board is sending this year, in
lieu of the posters which have here
to1Ore been sent, large and very ef-
fective missionary maps Of the world,
printed in five colors. The theme of
the day, THE South and the World
for Christ" is strikingly featured
by lighthouse, Illuminated by the
beautiful home mission spirit, and
from this the rays Of light radiate
to the uttermost parts Of the earth,
red spots marking the bases Of ope-
ratiOns of Southern Baptists in the
foreign field.
Thus the attention Of something
like two million people in the Bap-
tist Sunday schools of. the South will
be focused on missions on this day,
and the plan of making the great
mission enterprise of the denomina-
ton the central idea of the day can
not fail to bring richest results, not
only in increased gifts to home and
foreign missions, but in deepening
the missionary spirit in $4,000 Sun
day schools Of the Southland.
Last year, through missionary
day in the Sunday schools" it is esti-
mated that about 100000 was given
to missions. This year it is expected
that gifts to missions secured in this
way may reach the 100000 mark.
