October 22, 1975 Missionary Conference The Annual Missionary Convention of the Christian and Missionary Alliance church, 153 East High Street, Elizabethtown, will convene on Tuesday, Octo- -. ber. 21, “at 7:30 “p.m. continuing through Sunday, October 26. Speaking at the first session will be Mrs. Rosalys Tyler, a veteran missionary who, with her husband, has given 30 years of ministry with a primitive tribe of Red Bobos in Mali Republic, West Africa. Appointed in 1945, they later crossed the frontier in 1951 into Upper Volta, where they built the mission station of Djibasso, in an area of grasslands approximately the size of Colorado. Her labors have included linguistics with its literacy, translation and production of Scriptures and literature; teaching in short- term Bible schools; advisory help to the infant church. Mrs. Tyler finds translation of the Scriptures in the Boomu language of Red Bobo people an exacting but extremely rewarding minis- try. She will speak Wednesday evening at 7:30 p.m. Mrs. Tyler will also ad- dress both sessions of the Harrisburg Area Women’s Missionary Prayer Fellow- ship on Thursday at 10:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Mrs. Vonnie Gates, President of the Area WMPF will be Chairlady. These sessions are open to the ladies of the community who may wish to attend. The Harrisburg Area WMPF includes groups from seventeen Alli- ance churches in the vicinity of Harrisburg. Speaking on Thursday and Friday evenings will be Rev. David Miller, a son of missionary parents who with his wife, has spent ten years in the Ecuadorian jungles of South America in contact with both the Quechua and Auca tribes. Appointed in 1965, where they worked directly in Christian Educa- tion among students of the Peter Fleming High School, a technical high school for young Ecuadorian Chris- tians. The school was named in memory of Pete Fleming, one of the five martyred missionaries by Auca Indians in January 1956. Mr. Miller’s last term was spent among the Auca Indians, and he will describe the results the Gospel has had among these people. Coming to address the closing sessions of the Convention will be Dr. Edward Roffe, a veteran missionary appointed by the Christian and Missionary Alliance in 1929. Dr. Roffe was the Protestant mission- ary to establish residence as an expert linguist and in recent years was called upon many times to serve as an official interpreter for per- sonnel on diplomatic and governmental missions. Dr. Roffe and his wife co-au- thored a two-volume course in the Lao language pub- lished by the American Council of Learned Soci- eties, which is recognized as the core of the language course for those learning the Lao language. The printing of the newly translated text of the Lao New Testament entered the initial stages in early 1971 and has since been completed. Through the years, Dr. Roffe has filled a variety of missionary vocations, including those of administrator, evangelist, translator, missionary, pilot, teacher, author and advisor to the National church in Laos. Dr. Roffe will speak on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and at both Sunday sessions at 10:30 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. During the Convention, missionaries will accompany their addresses with colored picture slides. Curios, costumes, photographs, and other artifact of overseas origin and cultures will also be displayed. Convention music will include youth groups, the “‘Joy of Living’ Choir, Ann Shiner, Mrs. Grace Smith, and Linda Flury. Pastor James Grum- bine and the people of the Alliance church cordially invite the community to attend these challenging, informative missionary ses- sions.
