will center them on Christ, speaking words of truth, praying with the
persons to whom they can obtain access, laboring for the conversion
of souls.—

The sisters can work efficiently in obtaining subscribers for our
periodicals, in this way bringing the light before many minds.—

Review and Herald, June 10, 1880

There are noble women who have had moral courage to decide in
favor of the truth from the weight of evidence. They have conscien-
tiously accepted the truth. They have tact, perception, and good ability,
and will make successful workers for their Master. Christian women
are called for.—
The Review and Herald, December 19, 1878

Our sisters can serve as vigilant workers in writing, and drawing
out the true feelings of friends who have received our papers and

women who believe that we are indeed living in the last days, and

Women who can work are needed now, women who are not self-
important, but meek and lowly of heart, who will work with the meek-
ness of Christ wherever they can find work to do for the salvation of
souls.—

Hundreds of our sisters might be at work today if they would. They
should dress themselves and their children with simplicity, in neat and
durable garments, free from adornment, and devote the time they have
[29]
spent in needless display to missionary work. Letters may be written
to friends at a distance. Our sisters may meet together to consult as to
the best manner of labor. Money can be saved to present as an offering
