DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from History of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Protestant Church Seldom, if ever, do we know, when we venture upon an under taking with which we are not familiar, to what proportions the work will grow. As little do we know what trials will be encountered, what hours of anxiety will follow, what perplexities, opposition and disappointment will ensue; or what encouragement, consolation and visions of ultimate satisfaction will sustain and give strength to persevere and overcome. The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society was undertaken in faith, under a sense of obligation to Himwho gave the command to preach the gospel to every creature, and in compassion for women and children living in the darkness and exposed to the horrors of heathenism. To what extent the wishes of the founders have been realized, to what proportions the work has grown, this history will reveal in part. What harvests will yet repay the patient toilers, what satis faction will reward their travail, what hallelujahs will proclaim its grand achievements, the future must reveal. The record of the past shows that the devoted women of this Society, as well as the heathen in whose behalf they undertook their labors, have been blessed in their doing, The field of their vision has been enlarged, their sympathies have been intensified, their latent powers called into activity; they have become more or less familiar with modes and means of church work with which they had little acquaintance; they have grown into a more mature, vigorous and satisfactory Christian womanhood; and in view of'what they have been enabled to accomplish they may well thank God and take courage.
