Welfare Ministry
This document has been prepared in the office of the Ellen G.
White publications by the Trustees, who carry the responsibility of the
care and publication of the E. G. White writings. The work has been
done in full harmony with Mrs. White’s instruction to these Trustees
in providing “for the printing of compilations from my manuscripts,”
for they contain, she said, “instruction that the Lord has given me for
his people.”
That this volume of instruction addressed to Seventh-day
Adventists—laity and ministry alike—may encourage the church to
take advantage of the opportunities in neighborhood ministry; that its
[12]
instruction may guide in intelligent, conscientious, loving service; and
that through its guidance there may be an abundant harvest of souls in
the kingdom of God is the sincere wish of the Publishers and
The Trustees of theEllen G. White Publications.
