The Baptist World Alliance: Second Congress Philadelphia, June 19-25, 1911 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Baptist World Alliance: Second Congress Philadelphia, June 19-25, 1911

But those who could attend in person and gather inspiration by direct impact were but a small part of those who must stand at a distance and wait for tidings of the meetings. And these are no less interested than were they. To them this volume will come as a welcome visitor. It con tains all the addresses and sermons the Committee has been able to secure. Some were not written and these were obtained by steno graphic report. All the discussions, likewise, have been embodied. The portraits of most of the speakers and officers are given as in the preced ing volume and where there is failure it is because the photograph could not be secured. This is a pleasing feature of these publications. We get not only what was done, but we see also who did it. On behalf of the General Committee we extend thanks to all who have contributed to make the volume what it is. We do not specialize but leave to each the selection of his or her portion.
