Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Agnes C. P. Watt: Twenty-Five Years´ Mission Life on Tanna, New Hebrides This book was undertaken at the request of many friends who bad appreciated Mrs Watt´s general letters and desired to have them in a permanent form. Although the New Hebrides has been a good deal written about of late, I believe that there is still room for the present work. These letters exhibit mission work from a somewhat unusual view-point; inasmuch as they record twenty-five years´ faithful and incessant work with little apparent result. It is not difficult to be cheerful and enthusiastic in a flood-tide of success; but it is given to few to labour as Mrs Watt laboured, amid reverses and discouragement, for a quarter of a century, and meet the summons home with a heart a hopeful as on the first day she set foot on Tanna. Years of hope deferred, no doubt impressed her with a juster appreciation of the difficulties of the work, yet to the end disappointment failed to damp her ardour or sour her kindly disposition. She never despaired of Tanna, nor lost her faith that the gospel of Christ, which she offered to its people, was the power of God unto salvation to all who believe.
