    CHAPTER 32 “AN EDUCATIONAL CENTER”

    WE HAVE related how, at the General Conference of 1866, Mrs. White had earnestly presented the instruction given her regarding the adoption of the health reform principles, the establishment of an institution for the care of the sick, and the inauguration of a health educational campaign. Thirty-seven years later, in 1903, she wrote pathetically: “Medical missionary work is yet in its infancy. The meaning of genuine medical missionary work is known by but few.”—Special Testimonies, Series B, 8:28.SHM 362.1

    In striking contrast to this depressing picture is an optimistic statement by the same writer, just two years later, in 1905: “Henceforth medical missionary work is to be carried forward with an earnestness with which it has never yet been done.”—E. G. White Letter 233, 1905. Quoted in Testimonies for the Church 9:167.SHM 362.2
