JanOP1-132:1 Toyohashi Methodist Church.

62016 Awase: Rev. E.R. Bull, missionary in charge of work in Loo Choo Islands, Japan. The crowd has assembled about an old stone shrine where the ancestors of these islanders have worshiped their forbears for centuries. Last year, Rev. Bull preached to 2,000 in the public square of this town and the citizens called a second meeting in the city club house and asked for a second service. They promised to give the use of the club house as a church if work were started there. A gift of $50 has been received from the Blair Co. Industrial Home (Williamsbury, Penn) and by getting a preacher's salary from other sources. A young Evangelist was sent to Awase for one year. This special gift will last for one year only. We trust that some one will help continue the work in Awase, Loo Choo.
