Have you 'experienced the' thrill
of /listening to Margaret Kennedy
speak? Do avail yourself of the .
opportunity if she comes your way.
Miss Kennedy, .a missionary in
India is home now and is accepting
speaking engagements. 'Only the
very apathetic could fail to have a
responsive chord touched by this
enthUsiastic personality, the light
of love in her eye, and the dynamic
persuasionof her voice as she,"with
the aid of excellent slides, describ-
es in vivid detail the growth of our
missionary effort in 'that part of
India in' which she must be a truly
dedicated servant.
Miss Kennedy has,. been in
India's Bhil area since March 1939
as an evangelistic worker, chiefly
with women. Her large audience
was captivated and spellbound as
she addressed the Maitland Pres-
byterial Society in Knox`Presbyter-
ian Church, Teeswater,• on May 5;
leading them eagerly and humor-
ously through the developing years
and growth of the Christian church
in India, from the little trickle of
1898 to' its present broad scope.
In the beginning,, teaching the
people to .read, and to work in
dispensaries led to the setting tip of
proper school's, the ordaining of
ministers, followed by the estab-
lishment of hospitals, babies'
homes, and the formation of
Presbyteries as branches of the
Presbyterian Church in. Canada.
Bible Schools graduated learners
who became evangelist§ and Wom-
en's Fellowship 'groups were be-
gun. In 1952 a mobile clinic was
organized with two Indian nurses
and a driver to start a 'health
program in the villages: Miss
Kennedy spoke of the immense'
difficulties encountered in com-
munication because of great lang-
uage barriers in dealing with many
millions of people, and the
obstacles presented by the fear of
spirits and witch doctors. She
stressed the effectiveness of drama
as a teaching medium ---role
playing lets them see how things
happen and is more easily under-
stood than the written or spoken
word in many 'cases.
Now the Church of 'North India
has 'developed with 600,000 Christ-
ians. In a population of 550,000,-
000 there are 12,000,000 Christians
in India, Light' and learning has
gone out from the schools and is
shining through their Own pastors,'
evangelists, doctors, nurses, teach-
ers, and drivers. They are learning
to stand alone and to take charge of
themselves, but still need much
help from us to surmount their
many collossal problems. It
behooves us to share our multitud-
inous blessings with them.
So, from a very small beginning
Miss Kennedy has seen great
growth in fhe Church in India. it
has enlarged the curtains of its
tent, reached ont to other work
than its own, and brought in
.others." / We must all do likewise
---go, tell, show, teach; all made
possibleby our prayers, our
interest in , missions, and our
money. She has Witnessed people
who were off in little pockets now
going out; getting together, and
becoming a part of the family of
God, out of a 'state of toinplete
illiteracy to a state of joyful
knowledgability of the workings of
the spirit of God in every phase of
daily living. How great must be the
joy within her own heart!
Mrs. Alvin Mundell, Belmore,
