This statement Impresses on us the urgency of the situation. The fact Is that missionaries can now enter Zambia. Just how long they will be tolerated Is not known. Let us act while the door is open. Our desire is to train African leaders so that the Church of Christ will march triumphantly forward without the leadership of missionaries. Time is short. We will go if you will send.

will no doubt bring about some in

reactions.

A recent letter from Leroy Randall stated this; "And 1 am glad to hear you are going to be with us soon. The possibilities of s great evangelistic work in this country are limitless. It seems to me that this country is on the threshold of a great evangelistic surge forward. This is especially true of Lusaka where literally thousands of people are making their way from all parts of Zambia to seek
new homes."

Our intention is to work in the capital city of Lusaka. Evangelistic

opportunities in this modern city of 150,000 people are boundless.Active financial participation by interested Christians and "effectual, fervant prayer" of many will change intention to achievement.
