Sanitariums as Missionary<br />

Agencies<br />

There are souls in many places who have not<br />

yet heard <strong>the</strong> message. Hence<strong>for</strong>th medical<br />

missionary work is to be carried <strong>for</strong>ward with an<br />

earnestness with which it has never yet been<br />

carried. This work is <strong>the</strong> door through which <strong>the</strong><br />

truth is to find entrance to <strong>the</strong> large cities, and<br />

sanitariums are to be established in many places.<br />

Sanitarium work is one of <strong>the</strong> most successful<br />

means of reaching all classes of people. Our<br />

sanitariums are <strong>the</strong> right hand of <strong>the</strong> gospel,<br />

opening ways whereby suffering humanity may be<br />

reached with <strong>the</strong> glad tidings of healing through<br />

Christ. In <strong>the</strong>se institutions <strong>the</strong> sick may be taught<br />

to commit <strong>the</strong>ir cases to <strong>the</strong> Great Physician, who<br />

will co-operate with <strong>the</strong>ir earnest ef<strong>for</strong>ts to regain<br />

health, bringing to <strong>the</strong>m healing of soul as well as<br />

healing of body.<br />
