FROM reports received from the Mission in South Africa it becomes evident that the work there among the natives has been greatly blessed of the Lord. In order to accommodate the increasing numbers of people attending both church and school an extensive building programme has become necessary. The building of a new and enlarged school and church at Ingwenya are contemplated, and the opening of a new Mission Station at Shangani will necessitate the erection of several buildings there.
Such work will require to be superintended by a European who has some knowledge of building. There is here an opening for a young man with some practical knowledge of bricklaying and/or carpentry. Besides undertaking the general supervision of the building programme, the services of such a man would be useful in teaching the native school-boys the elements of building. There would also be ample opportunity for evangelistic work. Among our people there are surely some young men sufficiently interested in the work of Christ in the mission field and possessing the necessary qualifications, to consider seriously such service. Any young man who feels that he could undertake this work now, or is willing to equip himself for it, should apply to the Convener of the Foreign Missions Committee—Rev. J. MacLeod, 59 Campbell Street, Greenock.
