Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Eleventh Year of the Work of Pacific Garden Mission for the Year Ending Sept. 1st, 1888 Short Gospel addresses, much Singing, repeating of Bible texts by the audience, many earnest prayers, and the testl monies of the converts and others, closing with an after meeting and an altar service, is the usual manner of con ducting the meetings. Communion services are held each month. Of which all the lovers of our Lord, without distinction of creed, are at liberty to partake, after suitable admonitions are given by the leader of the meeting. The converts are advised to connect themselves with some Christian church, and to take upon themselves some regular Christian work, either in the church or at the Missions, and we are happy to state that the advice given them is for the most part heeded. Many drinking men have been saved to their families and friends, and many homes have been made happy. Many poor and sick have been helped many mourning hearts have been comforted; and many, heretofore criminals, have been made honest men; and many poor lost girls have been rescued by the Mission, during the past year. Many strangers passing through the city and stopping over for a night or two, have found salvation for themselves at the Mission, and have gone on their way rejoicing, to lead a better life, and to make their home and friends happy. We have kept a record of the members in attendance so far as we could, and also of those professing to seek the salvation of their souls during the past year, the report of which is given elsewhere. We know not how many have been truly converted to God, but we have reason to believe that the num ber is very large. many of the converts of the Mission are active workers in other fields of labor in other cities. Villages and communities; some are ordained Ministers and Evangel ists. We often hear from these by letter or otherwise, and are happy to find them generally successful and happy in their Christian work. In another part of this report will be found a few letters from some of these, which will furnish a sampleof the whole. The finances required to carry on the work have been in former years largely contributed by the founders of the Mission, but during the last year the friends of the Mission have contributed much more largely than ever before, and so the burden has been correspondingly less on us.
