introductory words

after a general introduction i shall refer briefly to some ways in which friends in the past have made a contribution to the church’s life and work. i shall then set forth under seven heads the distinctive mission which i believe the society of friends has to our own generation both in western lands and in the awakening nations of the east. in closing we may pause to consider what is required in order that this message may be believed in its fullness and power.
