An appeal on behalf of the missionary work of the Norwegian, Danish, and Finnish Churches, by the Rev. W. J. Noble , Chairman of the Conference of Missionary Societies in Great Britain and Northern Ireland
Norway, Finland, and Denmark have played an important part in Christian missionary work throughout the world. In peace-time over one thousand of their missionaries were at work in Africa and Asia, serving as teachers, doctors, nurses, and evangelists, helping to build up native churches all over the world.
The war has almost severed communication between these countries and the missions depending upon them.
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged, and should be addressed to the Rev. W. J. Noble , [address removed]
