“May God help us to develop plans so that our youth can become genuine medical missionaries.... We have before us the work of establishing a medical institution near Washington At Once. No time is to be lost. Call for the best talent, and make arrangements for conducting a nurses’ training school. All that can be done, should be-done, to make a deep impression in favor of the truth for this time. Place at the head of this institution one who can be trusted. Obtain facilities for giving treatment, and secure God-fearing youth as your helpers.”—Letter of Instruction, dated August 27, 1903. PH090 13.1
