"The early church missionaries did not have the benefit of greater financial support or better mission boards. They had no Mission boards and no human guarantee of support. They went forth in faith, looking to the Lord alone for guidance, for protection and for the supply of every need.
Comparing the general conditions faced by these first missionaries with those under which we work today, the material advantages would seem to be all in our favour's. We surpass them far in number of workers, in funds, equipment and Facilities of all kinds. We have the advantages of quicker and more comfortable travel, better means of communication and greater guarantees for life and property."
