Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Chicago Theological Seminary Register, Vol. 7: January, 1914 An adequate band of workers, usually three or four, go with the Mission, camping near the large tent, and working personally among the people, as well as conducting the services. A tent stand is from ten days to two weeks, and sometimes eight localities are visited during a summer. One of the most successful tent missions holds two services daily. The afternoon hour is devoted to the children, when a carefully prepared study course is used, much on the order of a Sunday-school outline. Frequently the boys and girls attending receive their first Biblical instruction in this class. Many times the children walk a mile or two to reach the tent, bringing their supper with them and staying over for the evening service. Often parents are reached through the interest of the children. One woman frankly said: "I can´t keep Dick away from the tent, so I just dropped in to see what it is like." The evening service is evangelistic in its simplest sense. There is no "giving of testimony" on the part of the audience. Those who have become interested and are anxious to take some definite step are encouraged to sign a card containing a very simple declaration of the purpose formed. When the tent passes on, these signed cards are given to the minister in whose field the mission has been located. This furnishes a useful guide in following up the work.
