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.

4-H EXPO
Once again Lancaster

deserves a repeat.

the dates of March
18-20th for EXPO.

and prize money awarded
to the winners.
