WHERE WE WILL WORK

Assam is in the northeastern part of India, and is bordered on the east by Burma, on the north by the Himalayas. Shillong, the capital, the city where we plan to locate is 9,990 feet above Sea level land has a population of 9000. The population of Assam is 10,204,733 according
to the 1941 census.

One thousand people of this country read the New Testament and took it for what it said. They foundi the Church as, Christ would have it, but when they tried tci follow the pattern, they were informed that they were the only peoplei foolish enough to follow, that idea. They established eight churches with the largest having a membership of 350. Then they came in contact with the Central Provinces India Mis sion, and rejoiced to find others of like precious faith.
ON, THE FIELD

Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Nichols were driven out, of Tibet' by the Com munists. They crossed from the China side of Tibet to the India side looking* for a place to continue serving the Lord. They saw the need in Assam and heard the call to help there.
