of the most impressive experience was gained at the ATLANTIC COASTAL AREAS, The need of evangelism of the
great megalopolis (I've never seen so many houses in

have been so comfortable for the past 150 years or'so is a point of sheer amazement. It may be that the great leaders were so preoccupied about orthodoxy and majoring in division, they had no time for men and women outside

the fold of Christ.
