PURPOSE OF MISSION
A scene on a calendar depicts the founder of the Salvation Army, William Booth. He is out on a rough sea at night in a small lifeboat. As the waves rage, Booth is reaching out his hand to pull in a survivor who was lost at sea. A small vignette in the corner shows Booth’s granddaughter asking her grandmother, “Grandma, is granddaddy trying to save that man or only shaking hands with him?” We would do well, as the church to ask the same question of our missionary efforts.
